Make a dressing with yogurt, mayo, oil, vinegar, mustard, salt, pepper, and sugar. Clean and peel the celery, and cut into thin strips or grate into sticks. Squeeze a little lemon juice over the celery while you work with it to prevent it from browning. Blanch the celery very briefly, then rinse well in cold water and dry again. Cut the apple into thin strips, also squeeze with lemon, and then toss with the celery. Add the lettuce to the dressing, mix well, and let it sit for an hour. Clean the chicory. Roast the nuts in a pan and stir half of them into the salad before serving. To serve: Arrange the chicory leaves in a circle on the plates, place the celery salad in the center, and sprinkle with the remaining nuts. Garnish with herbs. Enjoy!
