Method

step 1

To make the dressing, simmer the lemon juice, zest and sugar in a small pan for about 10 minutes, or until it becomes syrupy. Allow to cool and mix with the olive oil.
step 2

Wash all the vegetables, roughly cut the Little Gem, tear apart the Frisée, and slice the courgette using a vegetable peeler. Blanch the green beans in boiling salted water for 2 minutes, then cool in cold water.
step 3

Toss the vegetables together with the dressing, the nuts and the pickled lemon just before serving.
