Method

step 1

Heat a steamer over a pan of simmering water. Add the broccoli and cook for for 3-5 minutes until the stems are tender when pierced with a knife. Transfer to a bowl of ice-cold water to refresh and cool. Steam the peas for just a minute or two (or a little longer if they are frozen), then add to the broccoli bowl. Drain them together, patting dry with kitchen paper.
step 2

Spread the soft lettuce leaves over a platter or between two plates. Scatter with the broccoli, peas, spring onions and cress, then tear over the mozzarella or burrata.
step 3

Whisk the dressing ingredients with some salt and pepper and a tsp of water. Drizzle over the salad, and serve.
