This delicious summer salad serves 4 as a side or as a starter.
Ingredients:
3 oranges (any kind)
1 ripe mango
1 red onion
200g (7oz) ball of burrata cheese
Small handful of Thai basil or regular basil leaves

For the black pepper vinaigrette
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
juice of ½ lemon
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1½ teaspoons runny honey
pinch of flaky sea salt
Lots of freshly ground black pepper
Method:
- Slice off the top and bottom of the oranges, then peel the skin off with a sharp serrated knife, removing as much of the white pith as you can. Cut the oranges into rounds 1cm (½ inch) thick.
- Slice off the skin of the mango, then cut the flesh into evenly sized pieces, discarding the stone.
- Thinly slice the red onion into rounds and arrange on a serving platter together with the orange slices and mango pieces.
- To make the dressing, add all the ingredients to a small bowl, finishing with A LOT of black pepper – I like to add about 20 twists.
- Whisk together, then taste and adjust the seasoning.
- Break the burrata on to the platter and drizzle with the seasoning. Enjoy!
