This fresh herb, grapefruit and fennel salad is a vibrant celebration of crisp textures and zesty flavours. The natural sweetness of the thinly sliced fennel bulbs is beautifully balanced by the tart brightness of ruby-red grapefruit, while generous amounts of flat-leaf parsley and mint add a cooling, aromatic finish. It is a sophisticated vegan dish that works exceptionally well as a palate-cleansing starter or a bright, savoury accompaniment to grilled main courses.
Quick to assemble and naturally healthy, this salad is an excellent choice for those seeking a light, plant-based option for a summer lunch. If you are preparing for a dinner party, the citrus segments can be prepped in advance to save time. Serving it on a large, chilled platter allows the beautiful colours of the citrus and herbs to shine, making it an elegant centrepiece for any table.

2 small fresh fennel bulbs, trimmed, halved vertically, sliced paper-thin
1 cup fresh Italian parsley leaves
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves

How to make Fresh Herb, Grapefruit, and Fennel Salad
Cut off top and bottom ends of grapefruit. Stand on 1 flat side. Starting at top of fruit, cut off all peel and white pith, following curve of fruit. Working over bowl, cut between membranes, releasing segments; squeeze any juice into bowl. Transfer segments to another bowl. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover juice and segments separately and chill.
Combine fennel and herbs in large bowl. Cut grapefruit segments into 1/3- to 1/2-inch cubes. Add to bowl with fennel and toss to coat. Arrange salad on platter. Drizzle lightly with oil, then grapefruit juice, if desired. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes and serve.
