Method

  • Prep the beans and broccoli
  • Bring some water to the boil in the saucepan and cook the broccoli and beans for 3 minutes so they still have a slight bite to them 
  • Run them under the cold tap straight away to cool down and keep them still slightly undercooked and put them aside
  • Remove the seeds from the pomegranate and also set aside 
  • Toast the sunflower seeds in a dry pan or in the oven
  • Wash all the leaves and greens
  • Juice the lemon and mix with the olive oil, salt and pepper to create a simple dressing
  • Cut the artichoke halves into quarters
  • Mix everything together to create the salad, arrange nicely and drizzle the dressing over the top
