Mediterranean Seafood Salad

We’ve tried many salads, but nothing compares to the exotic taste of Mediterranean Seafood Salad, so we’re going to demonstrate how to prepare and enjoy Mediterranean Seafood Salad without stepping a foot out of London.

This recipe is one we made recently. Hopefully it will make you feel that you are in the Mediterranean particularly if you’re unable to jet off to the Med this summer. You might also want to enjoy Mediterranean Seafood Salad as part of a picnic with friends and family or in the autumn and winter as well.

An ideal time to prepare this exotic dish is 20 minutes nearer to your lunch time or dinner.

• 198g Loose Sweet corn
• Half of a lemon
• Sea salt and ground pepper

Equipment

• 1 Medium size serving dish

Method

We like to keep things simple when using ingredients like fresh Smoked Salmon, Garlic and Parsley King Prawns.

Step 1

Place the Smoked Salmon on a plate, sprinkle a little sea salt on to it, then leave in the fridge for a few minutes until you are ready to consume, to maintain freshness.

Step 2  

As for the salad, place the salad leaves into a colander, rinse under a tap, then drain out any remaining water. Chop into pieces.

Step 3

Pour salad leaves in to medium size serving dish.

Step 4

Now rinse the tomatoes separately as they tend to get squashed if rinsed with the salad leaves.

Step 5

Chop tomatoes in to quarters then arrange them around the salad leaves.

Step 6

Peel the cucumber, rinse under running cold water, then leave in colander to drain. Chop into small pieces.

Step 7

Distribute chopped cucumber around the salad leaves.

Step 8

Sprinkle sweet corn on to salad.

Step 9

Scatter Garlic and Parsley King Prawns evenly around salad leaves.

Step 10  

Take the smoked salmon out of the fridge.

Step 11

Tear the smoked salmon into small chunks with your fingers, arrange around salad.

Step 12

Scatter the olives on salad, drizzle sparingly with dressing (i.e. olive oil accompanied with olives) then squeeze a little lemon juice on to Smoked Salmon.

Leave to stand for about 5 minutes to allow the ingredients to blend into each other.

Serve with brown crusty rolls and Bagels.

Oh! And you might want to sprinkle a dash of ground pepper onto your Mediterranean Seafood Salad (optional) and compliment with half a glass of Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc.

Barcelona has so much to offer when it comes to food and drinks, and it has been our holiday destination for a few years. Inspired by the city and left feeling nostalgic.

Mediterranean Seafood Salad is one of our favourite meals and we tend to share it every fortnight for Sunday dinner, as if we were in the Mediterranean. This meal is likely to have a cooling effect on you, on warm summer day. “It’s the taste of summer”

With a glimmer of hope, when the sun comes out, Mediterranean Seafood Salad will be your safe bet for lunch or dinner.
