Moroccan Vegetable Salad

This vibrant Moroccan vegetable salad is a masterclass in balancing textures and fresh flavours. Combining the crunch of thinly sliced peppers and cucumber with the heartiness of boiled potatoes, it offers a satisfying yet light accompaniment to any Mediterranean-inspired feast. The addition of briny olives and a sharp citrus dressing provides a wonderful depth that elevates these simple garden ingredients into something truly special.

As a naturally vegan dish, this colourful salad is a versatile choice for outdoor dining, summer barbecues, or as a healthy lunch. Preparing it an hour in advance allows the garlic and fresh herbs to infuse the vegetables thoroughly. Serve it chilled alongside crusty flatbreads or as part of a larger mezze spread to bring a bright, zesty touch to your table.

How to make Moroccan Vegetable Salad

  1. Arrange the cucumber, potato and pepper slices, and the pitted olives on a serving plate or in a dish.

  2. Season with salt, if you like. (Olives tend to be very salty so you may not wish to add any extra salt.)
