Relish Tray

This vibrant relish tray is a quintessential vegan appetiser that brings a refreshing crunch to any gathering. By combining the sharp tang of quick pickled carrots and cornichons with the earthy peppery notes of fresh radishes, it offers a sophisticated balance of flavours. Serving the vegetables on a bed of crushed ice ensures every element remains remarkably crisp and cool, making it a particularly welcome addition to a summer buffet or a festive spread.

As a versatile plant-based platter, this dish is naturally healthy and caters to a wide range of dietary requirements. It functions beautifully as a palate cleanser between richer courses or as a light, savoury snack to accompany chilled drinks. For the best presentation, use a mix of colourful heritage radishes and ensure the olives are thoroughly drained before nesting them amongst the bright, seasonal vegetables.
