Mustard Vinaigrette

Try this vinaigrette with a mix of green leaves, snipped chives, shaved fennel and wafty ribbons of zucchini made with a vegetable peeler. It makes an excellent addition to any barbecue feast, or as a side to roast chicken. For some extra punch of flavour you can try rubbing the salad bowl with a cut garlic clove before adding the ingredients. The key is to dress the salad very gently. Clean fingertips are the easiest way to coat the leaves without bruising them.
