CHICKEN, ALMOND AND PARSLEY SALAD
This came about the way most of my favourite food has come about, by greedy opportunism. I had some cold chicken in the fridge, a huge bunch of parsley in a jug by the stove and had recently opened a packet of flaked almonds and I was just too hungry to think further. The important thing is to leave the parsley whole and unchopped - just tear the leaves off the stalks and heap them on the plate in a rough jumble - and to toast the almonds, which just means tossing them about over medium heat in an oil-less pan until they take on colour, at the last minute. I want the heat from them as well as the crunch. For US cup measures, use the toggle at the top of the ingredients list.

Steps:
- Using your hands, mix the chicken and parsley together in a large bowl or on a large plate. Dribble over the olive oil and, still using your hands, toss to mix. Now squeeze over the lemon juice, sprinkle over the salt and tip in most of the toasted almonds and toss again. Sprinkle over the remaining almonds, and your work here on earth is done.
PARSLEY SALAD
Steps:
- Wash and dry the parsley. Pick the leaves, and set aside. Discard the stems.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, zest, walnut oil, sesame oil, honey, and salt and pepper, to taste. Add the parsley and sesame seeds and toss to combine. Allow the salad to sit for at least 30 minutes before serving so that flavors meld.
PARSLEY SALAD ALA NIGELLA LAWSON
This very unusual salad is very pretty and unique. This may not be for everyone's taste buds, but is a pleasant change from the norm. I saw this prepared on the tv program "Nigella Bites." It would go well with Meditteranean or Middle Eastern style dishes and is a nice compliment to grilled chicken or fish. Be sure to only use fresh ingredients. I don't serve this as a side salad on its own, but rather, as a bed for salmon or other fish.

- Set parsley on a large plate or small platter in a big mound.

WARM SPICED CAULIFLOWER AND CHICKPEA SALAD WITH POMEGRANATE SEEDS
This is one of my favorite suppers, although there's nothing that says you can't serve this as a vegetable side as part of a more conventional meal. And you could also bolster it further by crumbling in some feta. But for me, it is perfect just as it is: the tomatoes almost ooze into a dressing in the oven, and the cauliflower softens, but not soggily. For choice, I'd always use home-cooked chickpeas (I cook batches in my slow cooker and freeze them in 1 1/2-cup portions for everyday use), but otherwise I like the pre-cooked Spanish chickpeas in jars. Yes, they are more expensive than the canned variety, but the cheapest option is always to buy dried. Don't feel bad about using chickpeas out of a can, though--I have been known to, myself. One can't always be so organized to have the freezer stashed with cooked chickpeas, and so I am always well stocked with canned chickpeas. They do work here, it's just that they won't be as soft; but then, you don't necessarily need them to be. The cauliflower and juicy tomatoes can stand some nubbliness. The parsley is not a garnish--ugh, that word--but used, here, as a salad leaf. And this is also very, very good cold, so if you have some left over, it makes a fabulous box lunch, or provides instant gratification on those days you have to eat fridge-side, with your coat still on, you're so hungry.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 220 degrees C (425 degrees F)/gas mark 7. Trim the cauliflower and divide into small florets. Pour the oil into a large bowl, add the cinnamon and cumin seeds, and stir or whisk to help the spices disperse. Tip in the prepared cauliflower and toss to coat. Pour the contents of the bowl into a small oven tray (I mostly use a disposable foil baking tray measuring 30-by-20 centimeters [12-by-8 inches]) and place in the oven for 15 minutes. Don't wash out the bowl you've been using just yet.
- Add the chickpeas to this bowl, and add the harissa, tasting it first to see if you want both tablespoonfuls, and, at the risk of being repetitive, toss to coat. Quarter the tomatoes and add them to the bowl, and shake or stir to mix. When the cauliflower has had its 15 minutes, remove the tray, quickly tip the chickpeas and tomatoes over the cauliflower, and toss to combine before returning to the oven for a further 15 minutes until the cauliflower is tender.
- When it's ready, remove from the oven and sprinkle the salt over the vegetables, then (and this isn't the last time) toss to combine with half of the pomegranate seeds before dividing between 2 bowls. Divide the parsley leaves--without chopping them--between the 2 bowls and toss to mix. Scatter with the remaining pomegranate seeds.

Steps:
- First make the dressing: put the oil and vinegar and a pinch of sugar into a large bowl and then put in a decent handful of chopped mint.
- Stir well so all is amalgamated.
- Cook the podded peas for a short time in salted boiling water, just so they are ready, but not soft.
- Taste after 2 minutes and then keep tasting.
- Pour peas in colander and then straight away into the bowl of dressing and let steep for an hour or up to a day.
- Just before serving, stir in about a packetful of mixed salad, the chicory which has been separated into it leaves and the avocado, which should be cut into bite size chunky slices.
- You may need to drizzle a bit more oil after tossing.
- serve this on a big plate.
- Sprinkle with more mint.
Tips:
- Use fresh, curly parsley for the best flavor and texture.
- Chop the parsley finely, so that it distributes evenly throughout the salad.
- If you don't have fresh lemon juice, you can use bottled lemon juice, but be sure to dilute it with a little water so that it's not too sour.
- Add the dressing to the salad just before serving, so that the parsley doesn't wilt.
- Serve the salad immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
Conclusion:
This parsley salad is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it simple or with a variety of add-ins, this salad is sure to please.
