Waldorf salad

Chop apples, celery and walnuts to make this classic American salad, full of freshness and crunch. You can make the dressing up to two days in advance

Ingredients

• 50g walnuts, toasted and roughly chopped
• 2 apples (we used Granny Smith), roughly chopped
• 1 lemon, juiced
• 100g mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp Greek-style yogurt
• ½ tbsp Dijon mustard
• 150g red grapes, halved
• 3 celery sticks, finely sliced
• 1 romaine or Little Gem lettuce, leaves separated and torn if large

Directions

• STEP 1

  Heat a dry frying pan over a medium-high heat and toast the walnuts for 3-4 mins until lightly golden and aromatic. Tip into a bowl and leave to cool.

• STEP 2

  Toss the apples with a splash of the lemon juice to prevent them discolouring. Combine the mayonnaise, yogurt, mustard and remaining lemon juice in a large bowl and season well. The dressing will keep chilled for up to two days. Mix the apples, grapes and celery with the dressing and toss well in a large bowl to ensure everything is evenly coated. Arrange the lettuce leaves on a serving platter and spoon over the apple mixture and any remaining dressing from the bowl. Scatter over the toasted walnuts before serving.
