Instructions

  1. Halve the cucumber and tomatoes and cut into slices. Cut olives and celery into rings or crescents. Finely chop the lemongrass.
  2. For the dressing, mix white wine vinegar, olive oil, chili oil and spices and mix well with the cut vegetables in a bowl.
  3. Let it steep briefly and fold in the rocket before serving.
  4. We love to eat this delicious salad for two as a small side dish. For big salad eaters or the salad as a main course, you simply double the ingredients.
  5. The umami salad was created through experimental use of leftovers. It has now become an integral part of our menu - we love the hearty taste.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
