Orange, Fennel and Mint Salad Recipe

This fresh, flavour-packed salad is a delicious accompaniment to heavier Spanish stews and braises. Oranges always remind me of my time travelling through Spain and, combined with fennel and mint, they make a salad that has become a firm family favourite.

Serves: 2 as a side salad
