100g baby/new season potatoes

50g cooked lentils
30g pomegranate seeds
10 green beans, topped and tailed

Cook the potatoes in salted boiling water until tender, drain and once cool enough to handle cut in half. Place into a mixing bowl. Cook the green beans in the potato water until tender and place into the bowl.

Take a vegetable peeler to make ribbons of courgette and place into the bowl. Add the finely sliced fennel, cooked lentils and pomegranate seeds.
