A gorgeous summer salad that takes no time at all to whip up, but is unique enough to impress your fellow picnic-goers. The key to getting the most out of this dish is waiting patiently until peaches are in season — then use the juiciest peaches you can get your hands on!

You will need

Serves 3

  • 200g watercress (swap for rocket/arugula if you can't get watercress!)
  • 2 golden clingstone peaches
  • 1/2 cup good quality piccalilli (mustard pickle)

For the dressing:

  • 1/2 lemon, juice (can use a whole lemon, to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
