This wonderfully light, bright and fruity is packed with easy-to-find seasonal produce and loaded with delicious flavours and textures. It makes a perfect appetizer or as a light lunch. The sweetness of the clementine and figs pair perfectly with the bitterness of the arugula and tartness of pomegranate arils. If you don't like goat cheese, tangy and salty blue cheese would be an excellent alternative.

 

50 g Arugula 4 Clementines 3 Figs, quartered 50 g Pomegranate arils 50 g Roasted, salted macadamias, roughly chopped 120 g Fresh goat's cheese, cut into bite-sized 1 tbsp White wine vinegar 1/2 tsp Wholegrain Dijon mustard Sea salt and freshly milled black pepper 3 tbsp Olive oil

1. Clean, wash and spin-dry the arugula leaves. Peel 3 clementines and cut into slices. Wash the figs, pat dry and quarter. Roughly chop the macadamia nuts. Cut the fresh goat cheese into bite-sized pieces.
2. Halve the remaining clementine and squeeze out the juice. Mix the clementine juice, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper together, then whisk in the olive oil.
3. Toss arugula, figs, clementines, and pomegranate arils with half of the dressing in a large bowl. Arrange the salad on a platter and top with goat cheese and the chopped macadamia nuts. Serve with the remaining dressing.
