Organic baby gem lettuce with sunflower seeds, dried chanterelles and sugar snap peas

This simple salad lets the ingredients shine, using baby gem lettuce as its base, and would do very well as a starter or side.

200g sugar snap peas
2 organic baby gem lettuce
zest and juice of 1 lime
60ml olive oil
85ml sunflower seeds
85ml dried chanterelles

• Place half a baby gem lettuce on a plate. Arrange the sunflower seed mixture on top of the lettuce and season with freshly ground black pepper and sea salt crystals.
