Pickled Ginger & Wasabi Tofu Salad
I absolutely love the flavours of wasabi and ginger, they pair so well together in sushi, so why not translate those flavours into a salad? Crisp leafy greens, pan-fried sesame soy tofu, creamy avocado, edamame, ribbons of cucumber and a creamy pickled ginger and wasabi dressing, topped with homemade furikake - a seaweed and sesame sprinkle.
This salad is so satisfying and full of nutritious ingredients whilst also feeling indulgent - it's fresh, tangy and has a spicy kick from the wasabi. The homemade furikake adds a little umami kick to the salad - I made mine with white and black sesame seeds lightly blended with nori seaweed, a pinch of salt and sugar and chili flakes. You can use the remaining furikake to top other salads, bowls and even as a topping for some fries or popcorn.

Tequila-Soaked Watermelon with Chili Lime Salt
Tequila-soaked watermelon with fresh lime, chili lime salt (Tajin) and fresh mint, the ultimate summer party snack. Perfect served crisp and cold out the fridge or for a heatwave party, pop it in the freezer for at least 4 hours before serving.
I absolutely love the flavours here, that just scream sunny summer's day and for those in the UK, this would be a perfect addition to a bank holiday Jubilee party. Juicy, sweet watermelon infused with the almost smoky flavour of tequila, layered with mouthwatering fresh lime, rounded off with the tangy lime and chilli salt and fresh mint - like a watermelon margarita in snack form!
