Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 Bunch of rocket, discarding
The coarse stem ends
1 sm Soft lettuce
250 g Macadamia nuts
2 cl Garlic, chopped
Salt pepper to taste
100 ml Macadamia oil
50 ml White wine vinegar
1 lb Turkey, sliced
Chives

Turkey meat, which tends to be dry, benefits particularly from this
macadamia dressing, but any roast poultry meat you have left over can be
used instead. Another soft lettuce can stand in for the rocket (arugula) if
you simply can't obtain the latter, but it won't provide the delicate,
savoury flavour. Macadamia oil can now be obtained in some supermarkets.
Arrange the leaves on four plates.

Heat 250 g macadamia nuts in an ungreased container in the oven until
they smell appetizing, then set half aside and tip the other half into the
bowl of a food processor. Add: 2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped. With salt
and pepper process to a paste.
With the food processor.running, slowly add 100 ml macadamia oil, then 50
ml white wine vinegar.

Slice or shred enough turkey for four people and gently loss it in the
macadamia salad.

Arrange the dressed turkey on the prepared plates, drizzle left-over
dressing over the salad leaves, Sprinkle with reserved macadamia nuts,
roughly chopped, and finely chopped chives. Serve.

A few extra chillies would give this salad a lot more punch.
