Recipe Notes

Dried fruit is a concentrated source of nutrients, including iron, phosphorus, calcium ad some B vitamins. It is also a great source of dietary fibre. Although only a small quantity is used in this recipe, poppyseeds make a contribution to the protein content of this salad.

Tip: Choose crisp, fresh looking sprouts, preferably with the seed still attached.
