100g wild rocket
1 red apple, halved and sliced
1 medium carrot, peeled and thinly sliced
1 red radish, thinly sliced
1/4 cup pomegranate
100g feta cheese
Tahini dressing
1/2 cup tahini
1/2 cup water
Juice of 1 lemon
1 clove garlic
2-3 sprigs each of dill and coriander
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Arrange the salad ingredients in a large platter or bowl, starting with the rocket, carrots, apple, radish, then finishing off with feta and pomegranate.
