A great wine and food combo - and my entry for the Salad round of Waiter There's Something In My... The wine is Bellingham's The Maverick Winemaker Chenin Blanc 2007 from South Africa.The food is a Lentil, Pea and Green Bean salad topped with a Yoghurt Chive Dressing. Oh, and being the carnivore that I am I threw in a pork chop. Bellingham Chenin Blanc and Salad

The salad is based on one from the March 2008 issue of Delicious where their version utilises yellow split peas instead of the lentils. No real recipe just top a mix of salad leaves (I used one of those supermarket bags of mixed watercress, spinach and rocket You must know the ones, they go off in the bottom of the fridge overnight once you have opened it) with blanched green beans, peas and the lentils and dot with the chive dressing. The dressing is about as close to a complication as you can get - mix a bunch of finely snipped chives into 120g natural yoghurt and mix in 1 tbsp red wine vinegar and 1 tsp Dijon mustard.

Looks delicious, I've had a lentil salad for the first time last month and really loved it:)

I love this salad! I think I would use lentils.

this salad looks fantastic - I had a bean salad in a cafe yesterday that really enthused me about beans in salads and I like the addition of lentils.

Your comment about the salad going off in the bags in the fridge is something I can relate to and I thought i would tell you what a little guy at the market told me - he sold me wild rocket and said that it doesn't go off like the usual rocket and he is right - I have had it over a week now and it is lasting well.

sans the pork chop, that's one fetching lentil salad. Love it! Beautiful!

Oh shucks... you say the nicest things
