Steps:
- Put all the ingredients (except the olive oil) in the blender. With the machine turned on, slowly pour the olive oil into the blender until desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasonings as necessary. Best when made at least 1 hour before serving, as flavors need time to meld.
Tips:
- Choose the right oranges: Use navel oranges for a sweeter flavor, or blood oranges for a tarter flavor.
- Use fresh capsicums: Different colors of capsicum will add different flavors and colors to your salad. Bell peppers can be used if capsicums are unavailable.
- Make sure the lemon balm is fresh: Fresh lemon balm will give your dressing the best flavor. If you can't find fresh lemon balm, you can use dried lemon balm, but use half the amount.
- Don't overdress the salad: A little dressing goes a long way. You can always add more dressing if needed, but it's hard to take it away.
- Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best served fresh. The oranges and capsicums will start to wilt if they sit for too long.
