One of my favourite sites to browse aimlessly is foodgawker. Whenever I’m not sure what to cook I always find something on this site that ends up turning out amazing. While browsing aimlessly tonight I came across this interesting recipe from Taste Buddies. I’m writing it here so I don’t forget abut it. I’ll be buying broccoli next time I go shopping!
Raw Broccoli Salad Recipe
(Serves 2)
3 cups of chopped broccoli
2 cloves of garlic, finely minced
2 tbs of finely minced coriander
1 tsp of cumin seeds
1/4 cup good quality extra virgin olive oil
Juice from 1 lemon
1/2 tsp of sea salt, or if you have it, flor de sal
Method:
1. Wash and finely chop the broccoli, several florets at a time. Include 1 garlic clove in the chopping. Chop for another minute and then add the second clove. Keep chopping until the broccoli is in 1/2cm to 1cm pieces.
2. Place the broccoli into a large, non-reactive bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients and then mix well with a metal spoon. Cover and let the broccoli sit in the fridge for one hour.
3. Serve with an accompanying meal of chicken, seafood or on its own.
