- Wedge of parmesan
For the lemon vinaigrette

Chef Tips
Goes great with a pan roasted salmon or steak. Perhaps some hard cooked eggs too.
Preparation
Step 1 (for the lemon vinaigrette)
Place lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper in a small bowl and whisk. Alternatively, place in a jar and shake to combine. Taste for seasoning.
Step 2
Place arugula, fennel, celery and pistachios in a large bowl. Season with a few tablespoon of vinaigrette, salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss gently to combine. Taste for seasoning. Shave parmesan right over the salad to your hearts content. Or place into a nice bowl and shave liberally. Finish with a little more freshly ground black pepper
