This salad is one of the first things I make when spring rolls around and we are given amazing greens. Grilling the greens really intensifies their flavour and adds another depth of flavour with the smoky char from the grill. Recipe by advocate, Chef Tom Walton.

Combine the pepita seeds, sunflower seeds, curry powder, a pinch of salt, and 1 tbsp olive oil in a small frying pan. Place over medium-high heat and cook, stirring often, for 3–4 minutes until the seeds are toasted and fragrant. Remove from the heat, stir through the currants, and set aside.
Step 2
Bring a medium saucepan of water to the boil and lightly season with salt. Add the rinsed pearl barley and cook for 15 minutes before draining and allowing to cool.
Step 3
Preheat a grill plate over high heat.
Step 4
Toss the green beans, snap peas, and snow peas with 2 tbsp of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 5
Grill the green beans, snap peas, and snow peas for approximately 4 minutes, turning and moving them throughout cooking until lightly charred but still bright green. Transfer to a large bowl.
Step 6
Brush the spring onions lightly with a little more olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Put the spring onions on the grill and cook, turning often for 5 minutes, until nicely charred and softened.
Step 7
Roughly chop the spring onions and combine with the yogurt in a small bowl, along with the sumac, lemon juice, and a little salt and pepper. Mix well.
Step 8
Place the charred greens into a large mixing bowl. Add the cooked pearl barley, 1/3 of the seed mix, the yoghurt sauce, dill, mint, a splash of olive oil, and a splash of red wine vinegar. Toss everything together, then serve scattered with micro herbs, more seed mix, and lemon wedges.
