Chilli, lemon and herbs add flavour - great alternatives to butter and salt!

    This is a nice recipe, the dressing can do with a change I would make it again, but with a tsp wine vinegar (probably white, but what ever I have) a tsp of honey, 2 tsp of mayo and 2 tsp dijon, but of dill if it's around. Mix it all up and boom.
