Method

1. Steam the broad beans for 5–6 minutes and then rinse immediately — this will keep their bright green colour.

2. Cut the rind from the bacon and dice. Put a little water in a pan and fry gently for a while then turn up the heat and fry until crisp.

3. Toss the beans, bacon and mushrooms together in a bowl. Blend the ingredients for the dressing together and then pour over the salad. Garnish with chopped fresh herbs if desired. Season to taste with sea salt and pepper (optional).
