This reliable salad has been a favourite at gatherings for years. It combines fresh broccoli with crispy bacon, sweet raisins and spring onions. A simple dressing of mayonnaise, milk, red wine vinegar and sugar brings everything together. For optimal results, the salad needs to be made a full day in advance, allowing the flavours to meld beautifully in the refrigerator.
