2. One young celery stalk including leaves finely sliced
3. Small bunch of fresh coriander, finely sliced
4. One Spanish onion – finely sliced
5. Half bottle or canned mixed mushrooms – drain oil, rinse and pat dry
6. ¼ cup of raw broccoli florets (optional)
7. Fresh mint (optional)

Dressing:
1. Three tablespoons of coarse grain mustard
2. Five tablespoons EVO
3. Juice from one medium sized lemon
4. Pinch of salt
5. Dash of freshly ground mixed pepper
6. One teaspoon clear honey or castor sugar
7. Chilli flakes (optional)

Method:
1. Mix dressing well, taste and adjust seasoning.
2. Add all ingredients, toss lightly with hands.
3. If using fresh mint, scatter on top of potato, drizzle extra EVO before serving at room temperature.

Note:
