Add the extra virgin olive oil, the honey or agave nectar to taste and the lime juice into the bowl, mix with your hands and add a pinch of maldon salt and black coarse pepper, taste and adjust seasoning.
Serve on a nice platter spreading your salad and add rashers of Jamon Serrano on top, you can add more fresh herbs and it's ready to serve, enjoy alongside a good chilled white, enjoy!
