We&#8217;re here to suggest how to prepare a salad, not tell you how to live your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roughly chop the coriander, mint, and as much Birds Eye chilli as you can handle. Are you someone who likes a full-blown mouthful of fire, or to actually taste what you&#8217;re eating?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Toss all ingredients into a bowl with a handful of leafy salad mix. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now move aside Salad, you show-off.
