Splash of light vinegar, such as white wine or apple cider

Directions

1

Lightly toast the pumpkin seeds in a dry pan over a medium heat until they start to pop.

2

Add the olive oil, honey and vinegar to a large mixing bowl (we’ll use this to form the salad) and mix well to combine to form a dressing.

3

Add the rocket, mint, blackberries, black beans and pumpkin seeds to the bowl and toss well in the dressing. Check for seasoning, if you think it needs a bit of sharpness (depending on the taste of your blackberries!) add a splash more vinegar to taste.

4

Serve the salads onto plates and crumble over the goats cheese, keeping it in fairly big, creamy chunks. Finish with some cracked black pepper and an extra drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, if you like.
