As we come towards the end of blood orange season I wanted to utilise this fresh and vibrant fruit in a simple way. Crudo seemed like a good choice. The balance of flavours and textures works well. I recommend using transparent soy sauce in the dressing if you can source it. It keeps the colours vibrant. I have also tried this recipe with tuna and it was delicious.

This is a simple sharing plate that was inspired by a walk through the woods as the seasons change here in Ireland. I wanted to create something vibrant, hearty, comforting and healthy, the echoed the landscape. The “soil” – a scattering toasted fruit, nuts and seeds – lays the foundation for this dish while the earthy cumin works well with the sweet and zesty accompaniments and garnishes.
