Quick Tahini Salad Recipes

TAHINI SALAD

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix all the ingredients together. The tahini mixture will become watery, then it will shrink, and then again it will become a bit loose while you mix. If your tahini dressing is too thick, add a little bit of cold water and mix again. Adjust ingredients to your liking.
• Chop the tomatoes and the cucumber into cubes. Add the tahini dressing and mix the salad.
• Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 450°F.

• While chicken roasts, blend tahini, water, lemon juice, garlic, sugar, and remaining teaspoon salt in a blender until smooth.
• Blanch sugar snaps in a 2-quart saucepan of 1 minute, then drain in a colander. Rinse under cold running water to stop cooking and drain well.
• When chicken is cool enough to handle, remove skin and discard. Remove meat from bones in large pieces, discarding bones, then pull meat into 1/3-inch-wide strips and transfer to a large bowl. Add sugar snaps, bell pepper, and dressing and toss to coat. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

LENTIL SALAD WITH TAHINI DRESSING

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large non-stick wok. Add the sweet potato and fry for 5 mins, stirring frequently until it starts to soften. If it starts to brown too quickly, put a lid on the pan. Add the carrot, courgette, onion, cumin and ginger, then cook over a high heat, stirring frequently, until the veg is tender and a little charred. Stir in the seeds towards the end so they cook for a couple of mins. Remove from the heat and add the lentils, bouillon powder, lemon zest, mint and parsley.
• Meanwhile, stir the tahini with the garlic, yogurt and 1 tbsp water to make a dressing. Spoon the lentil salad into bowls and top with the dressing and paprika, if using. If you're following our Healthy Diet Plan, save two portions stored in containers and chill until ready to eat.
