WINTER CITRUS AND RED CHICORIES SALAD

Steps:

• Using a serrated knife and following the curves of the fruit, carefully peel the blood oranges, navel orange and grapefruit. Remove all the peels and the white pith, but keep the fruits as smooth and round as possible.
• Cut the blood oranges and navel orange crosswise into 1/4-inch slices and place in a low bowl. Use knife to cut between the grapefruit membranes to form segments; add to bowl. Squeeze the grapefruit "carcass" over a strainer into the bowl with the citrus.
• Separate radicchio into leaves and tear into large pieces.
• Remove and discard a layer of exterior leaves from each endive so that only smooth and unblemished leaves are showing. Trim 1 inch from the bottoms and discard. Separate the leaves.
• Place radicchio and endive leaves in a large platter or in a low-sided salad bowl. Arrange citrus slices and segments artfully over leaves, reserving the citrus juices.
• In a small bowl, combine shallots and 3 tablespoons reserved citrus juices. Add a good pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk in olive oil and taste. Adjust the seasonings, whisk again, and pour dressing evenly over salad.
• Garnish with kumquat slices, if using, and toasted walnuts.

• While onion is marinating, cut peel and white pith from oranges with a sharp knife, then cut oranges crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• Drain onion in a sieve set over a salad bowl, reserving marinade and onion separately. Whisk mustard, stock, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper, and oil into marinade. Add chicory, onion, and oranges and toss with dressing. Serve immediately.

Dress the salad with a couple of squeezes of the remaining orange, then stick a small sharp knife into the cheese and twist to make little chunks. Scatter these over the top of the salad and serve straight away.

ORANGE AND RED ONION SALAD

Steps:

• With a sharp thin-bladed knife, shave off the peel and pith of each orange completely, exposing the flesh of the fruit. Slice the oranges into rounds about 1/3 inch thick (you'll have about 4 cups of slices in all). Handle them gently so they remain intact.
• Peel the onion, and slice it into very thin rounds (about 1 1/2 cups in all).
• Lay out the orange rounds on a serving platter prettily (I pile up all the broken pieces in the center, making a colorful mound). Separate the onion rings, and scatter all over the oranges.
• Sprinkle the salt over the top. Grind lots of coarse pepper over the top. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of your best olive oil all over the top. Shower the parsley over all. And serve!

CHICORY & ORANGE SALAD WITH GINGER DRESSING

Steps:

• Up to 2 days ahead, shake all the dressing ingredients together in a jar. Season and chill.
• Up to a day ahead, peel and deseed the orange. Cut the segments from the membrane and chill.
• Up to an hour ahead, slice the chicory in half diagonally so you get loose leaves and a solid stalk end. The leaves will be easy to separate, thinly slice the stalks, add the orange, lamb's lettuce and watercress. Chill until needed.
• To serve, when you're ready, toss in the dressing.

PRAWN SALAD WITH ORANGE, RED ONION & AVOCADO

Steps:

• Stand each orange on a board and cut away the peel and pith with a sharp knife. Cut the oranges into 1cm slices.
• Arrange the lettuce on 2 plates. Halve, stone and peel the avocado, then slice. Place the avocado on top of the lettuce leaves and scatter the prawns on top.
• Divide the orange slices, onion and coriander leaves between each plate and toss together very lightly. For the dressing, mix the dipping sauce and lime juice together and season with black pepper. Spoon over the salad and serve.
