Radicchio and Rocket Salad with Roasted Pepper Dressing and Burrata Crostini

This vibrant radicchio and rocket salad brings a sophisticated balance of flavours to your table. The bitterness of the radicchio and peppery rocket is beautifully offset by a sweet, smoky dressing made from charred peppers and briny capers. As a vegetarian starter or a light lunch, it offers a wonderful contrast of textures, from the crisp winter leaves to the silky, indulgent burrata cheese served on crunchy toasted baguette.

Adding burrata crostini provides a luxurious element that makes this dish feel special enough for dinner parties, yet it remains simple to assemble. The homemade pepper dressing can be prepared in advance, allowing the flavours to develop and making the final assembly quick and effortless. Serve this fresh, colourful salad as a healthy, stylish opening to a Mediterranean-inspired meal.
