Pear, nduja and walnut salad

I made this in about 3 minutes yesterday. I had neighbours coming over for roast chicken and suddenly thought that I ought to make some kind of starter.  And had a pear tree outside looking like it might collapse under the weight of hundreds of beautiful green marbled pears.  A small bit of nduja in the fridge and I had a feeling it would all go well with some walnuts I had in the store cupboard.

It was one of the nicest salads I have eaten in a long time.

Ingredients:

2 pears, ideally still crunchy and crisp

3-4 slices of nduja, chopped

handful walnuts, chopped

2 tblsp chopped flat leaf parsley

juice of 1 lemon

good quality extra virgin olive oil

malvern salt & black pepper

Cooking Method:

Core and slice the pears as thinly as you can and put them i a bowl with the lemon juice. Add the pieces of chopped walnuts and parsley. sprinkle over some good quality olive oil (about 3 to 4 tblsps), season and serve.
