Instructions: Peel the lemon by cutting the top and bottom off, then sit it upright on one end and cut away the zest and pith from top to bottom with a sharp knife, turning it with your non-cutting hand as you go.

Chop it roughly and put it in the processor with one of the cloves of garlic and the scallion and blitz (pulse).

Open, scrape down, then stick the lid back on and, with the motor running, pour the peanut oil and 3 tablespoons of the olive oil down the funnel into the processor.

Tear the lettuce into bite-size pieces and toss with the dressing.

Heat the remaining olive oil in a large frying pan and gently heat the second garlic clove until lightly golden to infuse the oil.

Take out the garlic clove and add the shrimp to the pan. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes until cooked through and no longer glassy in the middle.

Spoon them over the dressed salad leaves, being scrupulously fair as to how you divide them (if theres an odd number, Id wolf it down as you stand by the stove) and sprinkle over the chopped chives.
