Pear, Rocket & Avocado Salad

with Candied Walnuts | Serves 2

This classic combo of pear, rocket and walnuts is so good you won't want to share this dish! But the secret to this version is the candied walnuts - a layer of caramel makes this nutty addition delightfully sweet and so addictive. (Serves 2)

Instructions

1

Heat a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the walnuts and toast, stirring, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. Return the frying pan to a medium heat and add the brown sugar, the water and a pinch of salt. Cook until melted and bubbling. Return the walnuts to the pan and cook, stirring, until the caramel has thickened, 2-3 minutes. Spread out on a sheet of baking paper and leave to cool.

TIP: Cooking the caramel fully will ensure the coating is crunchy and not chewy.
