1

In a large frying pan, fry the shawarma ‘meat’ in 1 tbsp of olive oil until crispy. Set aside to cool.

2

Using a mandolin slicer, shred the Brussels sprouts. Alternatively, thinly slice using a knife.

3

Zest and juice the lemon. Remove the core from the apples, chop in half then thinly slice. Place the slices in a bowl of cold water and add the lemon juice to prevent browning.

4

Peel and thinly slice the onion. Roughly chop the herbs. Roughly chop the walnuts.

5

To make the dressing, peel and mince the garlic. Place it in a small bowl, along with the mustard, tahini, maple syrup, vinegar, water, 180ml olive oil and whisk together. Season to taste

6

In a large bowl, toss the shredded Brussels sprouts, drained apple slices, onion, herbs, kale and lemon zest together with ¾ of the salad dressing. Gently toss in the cooled crispy shawarma ‘meat’, dried cranberries, walnuts and pomegranate jewels.

7

Serve the salad with the remaining vinaigrette on the side.
