Simple Salad Starter


While decluttering my home in a brush with #newminimalism, I have decluttered the dishes I have been serving up of late as well.

Decluttering a dish into more simple flavours is not, I believe, the same as deconstruction at all.

Decluttering allows each bold or nuanced flavour to speak for itself, while mingling nicely at the flavour party with its temporary friends.

Such is the nature of decluttered tastes.

Your palate will thank you.



  • Form a tripartite alliance between:
    • wild rocket;
    • julienned fresh beetroot;
    • smoked Italian provolone.
  • Drizzle with buttery olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
