Steps

Toast the walnuts in a dry pan, then chop them roughly.
2
Core the apples, dice them and toss them with half the lemon juice so they don’t brown.
3
Slice the celery thinly and halve the grapes.
4
Mix the mayonnaise with the yoghurt, the rest of the lemon juice, salt and pepper.
5
Fold in the apple, celery, grapes and most of the walnuts.
6
Serve on lettuce leaves with the rest of the walnuts on top.

Tips and questions

How do I stop the apple going brown?: Toss it in lemon juice as soon as it is cut and mix it with the dressing quickly; the mayonnaise also protects it from the air.
Can I make it ahead?: Up to 4 hours ahead in the fridge, but add the walnuts at the last minute so they stay crunchy.
Can I make it lighter?: Yes, replace all the mayonnaise with Greek yoghurt and add a little extra lemon and a pinch of salt.
