This throw-together salad is packed with delicious summer ingredients and given a flavour kick with lamb dripping.
Method
-
Mix the lettuce leaves, coriander leaves and stalks, mint, olives, pepper, chillies and feta together in a large bowl. Arrange the mixture on a large serving platter.
-
Heat a little lamb fat (or olive oil) in a large non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Fry the courgette slices in batches until golden-brown on each side (about 1-2 minutes on each side). Sprinkle a little sea salt over each batch.
-
Add the cooked courgette slices to the salad platter.
-
Drizzle the sherry vinegar and the warmed lamb dripping over the salad, then serve.
