The refreshing flavours of clementine and fennel cut through the salty richness of the smoked salmon perfectly in this Christmas salad recipe. It would make a fine Christmas starter served with crusty bread.

Make the dressing up to 48 hours ahead, cover and chill. Peel the clementines in the morning and store in the fridge on a plate, covered loosely with damp kitchen paper and cling film.
