Ingredients

Servings
  • 250 g pearl barley rinsed
  • 1 cucumber peeled
  • 150 g feta cheese
  • 250 g tomatoes or cherry tomatoes, mini
  • 3 spring onions
  • basil a bunch, leaves
  • thyme a bunch, leaves
  • sea salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

For the Lemon & Honey dressing:

  • 2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil fruity
  • lemon juice and zest, unwaxed organic, quantity 1
  • 1 teaspoon honey high-quality
  • salt to taste, sea salt
  • black pepper to taste, sea salt

Instructions

  1. Boil the barley for about 15-20 mins in a pot of lightly salted water until tender, but still al dente.
  2. Transfer into a colander and cool under fresh running water, then drain well.
  3. While the barley cooks, prepare the remaining ingredients: chop the cucumber and feta into cubes, halve the tomatoes, slice the spring onions and mince the fresh herbs.
  4. For the honey & lemon dressing: simply put all the ingredients into a jar, close the lid and shake until well combined.
  5. Combine all the ingredients together in a large bowl and season with extra salt and pepper if needed.

Notes

  • This refreshing vegetarian salad keeps super well in the fridge, I usually make a big batch that lasts about 3-4 days. Store in an airtight container to retain its freshness.
