This zesty clementine and jicama salad is a vibrant vegetarian dish that brings a refreshing burst of flavour to any table. The combination of sweet, juicy citrus and the crisp, apple-like texture of jicama creates a sophisticated contrast that is both light and incredibly satisfying. Dressed in a simple lime and garlic vinaigrette, the ingredients are elevated by the aromatic addition of fresh coriander and the subtle bite of red onion.

Ideal as a healthy lunch or a colourful side dish for a weekend brunch, this salad is packed with vitamin C and provides a delightful crunch. The addition of creamy crumbled feta and toasted pumpkin seeds adds a savoury depth and essential healthy fats, making it a well-balanced option for those seeking a nutritious, homemade meal that looks as impressive as it tastes.
