Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by thoroughly rinsing the stonecrop under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris. Gently pat it dry or allow excess water to drain. Preparing the stonecrop properly ensures its crisp texture, which is key to this salad’s appeal.
Step 2
Next, prepare the strawberries. Remove the green hulls, then slice each strawberry into 3 to 4 bite-sized pieces. The natural sweetness of the strawberries will be the star of this refreshing salad.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, honey, balsamic vinegar, and lemon juice. Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk these ingredients together using a fork or a small whisk until they are well emulsified, creating a smooth and flavorful dressing. Ensure all components are thoroughly blended.
Step 4
Arrange the prepared stonecrop and sliced strawberries in a serving bowl. Sprinkle the toasted sunflower seeds evenly over the top. Finally, drizzle the freshly made dressing over the salad just before serving. Your vibrant Strawberry Stonecrop Salad is now ready to be enjoyed!
