Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a frying pan. Sauté zucchini and spring onions for 5 minutes over medium heat. Add asparagus, peas and beans and sauté for about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Wash watercress and herbs and shake dry. Cut the chives into fine rolls; chop the other herbs.
For the dressing, whisk remaining oil with broth, vinegar and lemon zest, season with salt and pepper and stir in chives, parsley and tarragon.
Arrange the lukewarm salad ingredients on plates. Sprinkle watercress on top and drizzle with dressing. Mix the sour cream with the goat's cream cheese, form dumplings with two tablespoons, and arrange on the spring salad.
