Method

Step 1

Arrange the shredded sprouts, apple, walnuts, celeryand shallots on a plate. Mix the buttermilk and lemon zest, and season well. if you aren’t fond of raw onion then put the shallot into the dressing first to temper the flavour.
Step 2

Fry the quartered sprouts in a drizzle of oil until they’re browned around the edges, tender and slightly crisp. Add these to the salad. Drizzle over the dressing.
