Ingredients

Method

    1. Slice the zucchinis using a peeler or mandoline (they should be very thin slices). Place it in a bowl and add a crushed garlic clove, a pinch of salt, and the juice of one lemon. Let it marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for at least an hour and a half.
    2. After this time, remove the garlic clove and drain the zucchini. Pat the zucchini slices dry with paper towels and arrange them on a plate or in a salad bowl. Crumble feta cheese on top.
    3. Toast the macadamia nuts and hazelnuts, then chop them. Add them along with the pine nuts and raisins to the salad. Finish with some chopped basil leaves and a drizzle of olive oil.

Tips

If you want to turn this salad into a main dish, you can add a grilled tuna steak tataki-style or a baked chicken breast.
