Scoop 1 teaspoon of honey, put it in a little jar and pour the bit of hot water over it so that the honey can dissolve.
Add the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Cut the garlic fine, squeeze it further with the side of your knife and add to the little jar.
Cut the basil leaves finely and add to the jar.
Screw the lid on the jar. Just before serving, shake it rigorously and pour over your salad. Put a lid on your salad bowl, shake everything around and serve immediately.
