I actually think this is one of my favourite salads that we make. As many times that I have had it, I am always surprised by the punch of flavour that I get with every bite. I think that the genius of this salad is that you add flavour to each component and don’t actually make a dressing: the vinegar in the red onion and dates give the acidity and sweetness, the butter, sumac and chilli in the almonds and bread are the spicy and oily bit, and all the final dish needs is a squeeze of lemon and you’re good to go!
