BABY SPINACH, FRESH PEA AND FETA CHEESE SALAD

Steps:

• You need 2 large handfuls of baby spinach -- check for nasty stalky or wilted bits and then give it a really good wash (nobody likes gritty spinach). Spin dry, and add to a salad bowl with 2 smaller handfuls of fresh peas (unless you are lucky enough to get young peas which are sweet and tender, you should blanch the peas in boiling, unsalted water and leave to cool). Dress the salad at the last minute with olive oil and lemon juice dressing and sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the top.

• To make the vinaigrette, combine the garlic, vinegar, salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the oil. Whisk in the grated cheese.
• Lay mushrooms on a baking sheet gill-side down and brush with 3 tablespoons of vinaigrette. Roast in oven for 20 to 30 minutes, or until mushrooms are very tender.
• Meanwhile, using a mandoline or vegetable peeler, shave the fennel into paper-thin slices. Arrange slices around the edge of a large platter; drizzle with half of the remaining vinaigrette. Add the spinach to bowl with the rest of the vinaigrette and toss. Pile the spinach in the center of platter. While the mushrooms are still warm, slice them thinly on the bias.
