Despite using local products, this salad feels exotic and boasts a wide range of flavours, including sweet, sour and salty. Gently fried tinned pears go beautifully with dried beans – both can often be found hidden away at the back of the kitchen cupboard, yet they take centre stage in this recipe. If you’re using fresh pears, they should be very ripe and sweet. Smoked tofu will go well with this salad and will keep it vegan. Alternatively, you can serve it with boiled sausage, bacon or ham.
