Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    1. Prepare your vegetables. Slice the baby courgettes lengthwise and trim your fine beans. Place both the fine beans and the edamame beans in a saucepan, cover with water and parboil for about 5 minutes. Drain and keep the peas or edamame beans aside for later.

  2. 2

    Heat your griddle on a medium, cover with olive oil and place the baby courgettes face down to grill for 3 minutes each side. Set aside and season with salt flakes. On the same griddle add your fine beans just for a couple of minutes to give them a little colour.
    Place all vegetables in a bowl and season with the mint and honey dressing. Serve with mozzarella, more dressing and microgreens to garnish. You could add some toasted pine nuts for crunch.
