Ingredients

Method

  1. Toast the walnuts in a dry frying pan over medium heat for 3–4 min, shaking often, until fragrant. Cool and chop roughly.
  2. Whisk the mayonnaise, yogurt, mustard, half the lemon juice, honey, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
  3. Toss the chopped apple in the rest of the lemon juice straight away so it stays white, then add it to the dressing with the celery and grapes and fold together.
  4. Line a bowl or plates with lettuce leaves, spoon the salad on top and scatter with the walnuts just before serving.
