Hands-down one of the quickest salads you'll put together this Christmas and one of the tastiest. An excellent marriage of crunch and sweet and salt and soft, all covered in manchego cheese snow.

Ingredients

Dressing

  • 3 tbsp quality balsamic glaze

  • juice of ½ lemon

  • 5 tbsp olive oil

Salad

  • 150g radicchio leaves

  • 1½ cups red grapes, halved

  • ½ red onion, finely sliced on a mandolin

  • arils of ½ pomegranate

  • salt and pepper to season

  • 80g-100g manchego

Method

  1. 1. Whisk the dressing ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.

    2. Spread the radicchio leaves on a large serving platter. Top with cut grapes, onion and pomegranate arils. Season generously with salt and pepper.

    3. Spoon over the dressing, enough to coat the salad here and there in pockets of balsamic and oil.

    4. Using a microplane, grate the manchego generously over the salad and serve immediately.
