CHEF’S SECRET

Let salad ingredients sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.

Drain marinated vegetable leftovers well and add them to a sandwich, alongside a Parmentier, or as a topping to a side dish of rice.

For the bowl, you can choose the vegetables suggested in the recipe or any other of your favourites.

The bowls can also be prepared with cubes of salmon, tuna or tofu.
