Steps

1To begin making the Green Apple, Radish & Pepper Salad first wash the vegetables well and prepare them. Remove the pith and seeds from the peppers. Slice the eyes off the tomato. Peel the white radish but not the red. Core the apple without peeling it and dice it.
2Next, dice all the vegetables for the salad into small similar size pieces and place in salad bowl. The Broccoli florets should be cut vertically to retain its shape, but into very thin slices.
3Place all the chopped vegetables in a large salad bowl and refrigerate till ready to serve.
4To make the Salad Dressing, first mince the Ginger and hope up the cilantro. Slit the chilli lengthwise and de-seed it.
5Smash the garlic along with 1/4 teaspoon of salt, with a heavy ladle or other heavy implement, to bring out the fresh flavours.
6In a smaller mixing bowl, pour the lemon juice, add the smashed garlic, ginger, chilli and zest and stir. Add salt and pepper to taste.
7Slowly drizzle the sesame oil into the dressing, whisking continuously till the juice and oil blend and emulsify.
8Sprinkle in the chopped cilantro and thyme and mix. Store the dressing in the refrigerator till ready to serve.
9Dress the salad only when ready to serve. Pour the dressing on the salad and gently mix it in with the tips of your fingers. Cover and chill till ready to serve.
10Serve Green Apple, Radish & Pepper Salad on a hot day and it can make a refreshing meal all on its own or you could also serve it as an accompanying side for a meal of Pasta or Pizza.
