Method
The salad is special enough for a romantic dinner – and an MCC!
To make herb yoghurt, simply add chopped coriander, chives and mint to plain yoghurt and mix through. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.
Press the calamari dry and roll it in the cornflour seasoned with salt and pepper. Heat the oil and fry the calamari in batches quickly over high heat until crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Arrange the lettuce, papaya and avocado on a serving plate and spoon the warm calamari over. Sprinkle with lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste, and serve with herb yoghurt.
