Parsley Salad Ala Nigella Lawson image

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.

I'm allergic to parsley, so I can't try this salad. :(

This salad is way too expensive. I can get a better salad at the grocery store for half the price.

I tried making this salad, but it didn't turn out well. I think I used too much parsley.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding some more herbs or spices.

This salad is a bit too tart for my taste. I would recommend using less lemon juice.

I'm not a huge fan of parsley, but I really enjoyed this salad. The lemon and garlic really helped to balance out the flavor of the parsley.

This salad is so easy to make. I just chopped up the parsley, mixed it with the other ingredients, and it was ready to go.

This salad is a great way to use up fresh parsley. I had a bunch that was about to go bad, and this salad was the perfect way to use it up.
