Instructions
Preheat oven to 200°c, in a medium bowl, toss the edamame in the oil, salt and pepper until evenly coated. Once covered, place on a baking tray and roast uncovered for 15-20 minutes until it’s starting to crisp and turn brown around the edges.
I think the flavour is more even if you dress your greens before adding the remaining salad ingredients, so I like to mix my dressing, add half to the greens, then add the remaining ingredients and toss in the dressing again. But if you’d like as few steps as possible, you can skip the middle step and simply add your dressing at the end.
Mix your dressing ingredients in a small dish/ jug. Add your greens to a large bowl and toss with roughly half of the dressing.
Once the edamame is ready, add all of the remaining salad ingredients to the bowl along with the reaming dressing then toss again prior to serving.
