This warm chestnut and apple salad is a sophisticated vegan dish that perfectly balances seasonal flavours and textures. The peppery bite of rocket and the slight bitterness of curly endive provide a crisp foundation for the sweet, sautéed Granny Smith apples and buttery chestnuts. Finished with a rich walnut oil dressing, it offers a wonderful depth of flavour that feels indulgent yet light enough for a first course.
Ideal as a festive starter or a smart lunch, this salad brings a touch of elegance to any autumn or winter menu. The combination of warm fruit and nuts against chilled leaves creates an appealing contrast that is sure to impress your guests. For the best results, serve it immediately while the shallots and chestnuts are still fragrant and warm from the pan.
