Pick over the purslane and dry it on a clean towel for 2 minutes, making sure the leaves are fully dry so they do not water down.
Dry the greens for the cheese purslane salad and remove the tough stems so the leaves do not dilute the dressing.
For the cheese purslane dressing, whisk the olive oil with lemon juice and salt so the cheese flavor comes forward.
Toss the main ingredients with the dressing for 1 minute without crushing them, so the pieces do not break apart.
Combine the leaves with the dressing at the last moment and serve without waiting.
💡 Tip: Tearing the purslane by hand instead of cutting it with a knife reduces bruising and excess moisture.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Rest for 5 minutes before serving and place pickles and olives in side dishes.
