Purslane and Parsley Salad

This vibrant purslane and parsley salad is a wonderful way to showcase the unique, succulent crunch of purslane. Paired with sweet heirloom cherry tomatoes and a generous amount of flat-leaf parsley, this vegan dish offers a refreshing contrast of earthy and citrus notes. The simple shallot vinaigrette provides a delicate acidity that balances the richness of the olive oil, making it an ideal choice for a light lunch or a sophisticated seasonal side dish.

As a nutrient-dense leaf with a naturally peppery, slightly lemony flavour, purslane perfectly complements various Mediterranean-inspired meals. This healthy, plant-based salad is best served alongside grilled vegetables or fresh sourdough bread for a simple, homemade meal. It is an excellent choice for outdoor dining during the warmer months when tomatoes are at their sweetest and most colourful.
