Salata: Mediterranean salads for all occasions by Michael Rantissi and Kristy Frawley

A wide world of Mediterranean salads, with more than 90 healthy recipes celebrating the classic flavours of Greece, Italy, Türkiye and beyond.

Salata evokes the Mediterranean with delicious and nourishing salads that are meals in their own right. The stunning recipes in this book champion seasonal produce and draw on Greek, French, Italian and Spanish culinary traditions as well as those across the sea to North Africa and the Middle East, offering the full medley of Mediterranean flavours.

Each chapter is designed to show you how easy it is to turn the vibrancy and balance of Med ingredients into nutritionally complete salads, whatever the occasion or dietary need. They cover:
• every day and every night options
• more luxurious options for weekends and entertaining
• a range of simple salads that often spin just three central ingredients into something special
• bonus dressings, protein hits and crunchy toppings, making it easy to personalise any recipe.

The gorgeously photographed and veg-forward recipes in this book are adaptable and scaleable whether you’re cooking for 2 or 80. Say goodbye to the uninspired lettuce leaves and chopped vegetables that can be an afterthought to a meal; thanks in large part to the many cuisines of the Mediterranean, the salad revolution is here.

Michael and Kristy saw a gap in the market for Mediterranean–Middle Eastern catering and established Kepos Catering, an offshoot of their restaurants. One element of Kepos Catering is the bespoke platters that offer customers a choice of salads and vegetables to order by the platter for their next event. Currently, Michael and Kristy run Kepos Street Kitchen (Redfern), Kepos Catering, Kepos @ Carriageworks (market stall and catering, Eveleigh) and Salma’s Canteen (Rosebery).
