• Make the salad: Toss carrots and fennel in bowl with dressing to coat. Let stand until softened, about 15 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer carrot-fennel mixture to a large bowl; discard excess dressing. Add shallot, orange segments, and mache; toss to combine. Divide salad among 4 serving plates.

FENNEL & CARROT SALAD

• Add the fennel, carrot, onion, and walnuts to a mixing bowl. In another small bowl, combine the olive oil, vinegar, mustard, agave syrup, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and mix well to combine. Add the vinaigrette to the salad and toss to coat. Serve with a sprinkle of salt and ground black pepper, to taste.

• For the dressing, whisk together the lemon juice, garlic, ginger and yogurt, along with a pinch of salt, and set aside.
• Slice each cucumber in half lengthwise, and then into quarters. Slice each quarter on the diagonal in thin slices. Place in a large bowl along with the mâche, mint and cilantro. Just before serving, pour the dressing over the greens, and mix gently. Place the salad on a large platter, sprinkle with the nigella seeds and serve, with the oil drizzled on top.

MâCHE SALAD WITH CREOLE VINAIGRETTE

• Toss mâche with vinaigrette just before serving.

MACHE AND HERB POWER SALAD

SHAVED CARROT AND FENNEL SALAD WITH HONEY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Shave the carrots into long strips with a vegetable peeler. Place in a large bowl. Thinly slice the fennel and add to the bowl with the carrots. Chop enough fennel fronds to equal 1 tablespoon and add. Add the apricots.
• Whisk together the honey, vinegar and mustard. Add the oil in a slow, steady stream and whisk until combined. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Let stand at least 1 hour to allow the vegetables to soften. Sprinkle with the pine nuts before serving.

FENNEL,CARROT AND MACHE SALAD

Steps:

• Using a peeler, remove the skin from the carrots and discard, then continue to peel the carrots until you are left with a pile of long thin slices. Cut the fennel bulb in half and remove the core from the inside. Shave the fennel as thinly as possible. In a separate bowl, mix together the lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil, season with salt and pepper. Dress the fennel and carrots with some of the vinaigrette and add the mache last.

SHAVED CARROT, FENNEL, AND TANGERINE SALAD

Steps:

• Use a mandoline or very sharp knife to shave the carrots lengthwise into ribbons. Cut off the stalks and fronds from the fennel bulbs if still attached. Shave the fennel lengthwise like the carrots.
• Put the carrots and fennel in a bowl and toss with the olive oil, lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon vinegar. Let stand for 20 minutes to soften.
• Add the red onion. Gently mix in watercress and tangerines. Season with salt and pepper, toss well, taste, and add more vinegar if needed. Serve immediately.
• Michael's Notes: If your tangerines are small, you can leave the sections intact. If the tangerines are large, or if you want to use oranges, you should remove each citrus section from its membrane. To do so, cut a slice off both ends of each fruit so it will stand upright. Stand each fruit on a cutting surface and, using a sharp knife, remove all the peel and white pith by slicing from top to bottom all the way around the fruit, following its contours. Cut the sections away from their membranes.

FENNEL & CELERY SALAD

Steps:

• Very finely slice the fennel bulbs lengthways (a mandolin makes this easier). Cut the celery stalks into thin matchsticks. Scatter the fennel and celery on a large plate or platter, drizzle over the fruity extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice, then season. Scatter any fennel fronds and celery leaves over if you have them.

PEPPERY FENNEL & CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• Tip the carrots and fennel into a salad bowl. Toast the nuts in a hot frying pan for 3-5 mins until golden, then tip onto a plate. In the same pan, heat the oil and fry the mustard and nigella or black onion seeds, if using, until they begin to pop - about 30 secs. Pour in the lemon or lime juice and mix together to make a dressing. Toss together with the vegetables in the bowl, then sprinkle with nuts to serve.
