This is a simple, quick and really tasty side to prepare. Let it rest for at least a half hour before serving however it actually improves with age. It can be kept in the fridge in an airtight container for a number of days. Make sure to mix dressing through before serving. You can have it as an extra side or toss through a green salad and for extra flavour add a little of the dressing.
