This colourful, crunchy salad is a tasty Pesach option. Only make as much dressing at you need as it does not last long.

Method:

  • Make the toasted nuts – you can use an air fryer or oven to do this. If using an oven heat heat it to 160°C (fan) and mix the nuts with all the other ingredients. Line your air fryer or a baking sheet with baking parchment and place the coated nuts on top, spread in a single layer.
  • Toast for 8-10 minutes at 160°C in the air fryer or oven. Keep an eye on them as they can burn, checking every couple of minutes from 5 minutes in.
  • Set aside to cool.
  • To make the slaw, trim the ends off the carrots then grate either by hand or in a food processor and tip into a large bowl.
  • Halve the fennel and remove the core. Finely slice and add to the carrots.
  • Remove the core from the cabbage and finely slice – again you can do this in the processor if you prefer. Add them to the vegetables.
  • Slice the spring onions at an angle into 2cm slices. Add them to the other vegetables.
  • Quarter the apples, remove their cores and then cut the quarters into thinner slices before adding to the bowl with the parsley – reserving a little parsley for garnish.
  • Make the dressing: mix the olive oil, yoghurt, almond butter, honey and lemon juice. Season to taste then add to the salad with the toasted nuts – reserving a few for garnish.
  • Mix to combine then taste again.
  • Serve immediately, scattered with the reserved parsley and nuts.
