CibbuanoRocket salad: food for the inner Rocket Scientist!

Rocket Salad!
On a more serious note, Rocket salad is a great change away from the traditional garden salad which features the usual, lettuce, tomato and cucumber. Why eat your salad plain when you can whip up a vinaigrette in 5 seconds (possibly 3 seconds if you’re a seasoned professional)? So take a break from the winter comfort food for a day and give rocket salad a go!
Rocket salad
Ingredients: 70g baby rocket shredded, 1 small Spanish onion finely chopped, 3 ripe tomatoes cut into thin wedges, juice of 1/2 a lime, 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar, 2 tbsp olive oil, 4 tbsp roasted walnuts chopped roughly
Steps: Put the rocket into a large bowl, add the onions and tomato. In a small bowl whisk together the balsamic vinegar, juice of 1 lime, olive oil and caster sugar, then pour over the rocket and toss. Add the walnut, toss then serve!
Making Rocket Salad
P.S. Spanish onion is a key ingredient in this salad, so I recommend a stick of gum afterwards, for the benefits of your friends, unless of course they love onion-freshness.
