Serve this simple and stylish Spanish salad by itself or as part of a tapas spread.

3 butter lettuces
20ml (1 tablespoon) red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

1/4 cup pitted, sliced green olives
1/4 cup pitted, sliced black olives

Method

1.

Discard outer lettuce leaves, so you are left with only the hearts. Cut each heart into quarters and set aside.
2.

Place vinegar and mustard in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Gradually add oil, whisking to combine. Stir in olives and tomatoes.
3.

Place two quarters of lettuce on each plate and drizzle with the dressing.
