Sweet pepper and Onion Salad

This vibrant sweet pepper and red onion salad is a celebration of fresh, seasonal produce and bright Mediterranean flavours. By allowing the thinly sliced peppers to macerate in a sharp Sherry vinegar, they soften beautifully while retaining a satisfying crunch. The combination of colourful orange or yellow peppers makes this a visually stunning addition to any table, offering a natural sweetness that balances the piquancy of the red onion.

As a versatile vegan side dish, this salad is an excellent accompaniment to grilled vegetables, crusty sourdough, or part of a larger summer spread. Packed with a fragrant medley of fresh mint, basil, parsley, and chives, it provides a refreshing burst of garden-fresh flavour. It is a light, healthy, and hydrating option that is as simple to prepare as it is delicious to eat.
