Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/4 tablespoons minced ginger
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
1/8 teaspoon sugar
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pink grapefruit
8 ounces watercress (about 2 bunches), thick stems removed
1/2 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
1/8 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Make the dressing: Whisk together ginger, garlic, lime juice, vinegar, sesame oil, and sugar in a small bowl. Gradually add olive oil, whisking constantly until fully combined. Set aside.
  • Remove peel and pith from grapefruit. Holding over a medium bowl, carve out flesh between the membranes, letting segments drop into the bowl (you should have about 3/4 cup segments). Add watercress. Pour dressing over watercress and grapefruit; toss to coat. Sprinkle with walnuts. Season with salt and pepper.

WATERCRESS, ROCKET, SWEET PEAR, WALNUT AND PARMESAN SALAD



Watercress, Rocket, Sweet Pear, Walnut and Parmesan Salad image

Provided by Jamie Oliver

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 0

Steps:

  • What a pukka combination, simple and classy. Don't try to make this when you feel like it, make it when you can buy perfect pears, otherwise it will taste naff. For 1 person I normally use around 1/2 a pear, 2 big handfuls of watercress and 2 big handfuls of rocket. If the pear skins are nice I just give them a wash, if not I remove them with a peeler. Then cut them in 1/2 and deseed. It doesn't really matter how you cut them up. Sometimes in big rough chunks, maybe sliced up or even grated. Then place into a bowl with the watercress and rocket. The pepperiness of the leaves works so well with the sweetness of the pear. Drizzle with good extra-virgin olive oil just to coat, a small squeeze of lemon juice (because the pear juice is slightly acidic but very tasty), and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss all this together and serve. Shave over Parmesan or pecornio, crumble your nuts over and tuck in. I love this salad with roasted meat or as a starter on its own.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER SALAD WITH WATERCRESS, WALNUTS AND GRUYèRE



Roasted Cauliflower Salad With Watercress, Walnuts and Gruyère image

You can make this kind of salad with almost any vegetable that won't wilt or burn when subjected to a copious slick of oil and a blast of high heat. Broccoli, brussels sprouts, beets, parsnips, sweet potatoes, winter squash and rutabagas all work well. One of the best vegetables for this salad, though, is cauliflower. The florets turn juicy and tender in the center while crisping and browning around the edges, and cauliflower's mild flavor is amenable enough to pair nicely with almost anything else you toss in the bowl.

Categories     easy, weekday, salads and dressings

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 head cauliflower, cut into bite-size florets
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
2 bunches watercress, large stems removed
1/4 pound Gruyère, diced or grated (about 1 cup)
2/3 cup toasted walnuts

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. In a bowl, toss together the cauliflower, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Spread the cauliflower on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast, tossing occasionally, until tender and dark golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar with the remaining salt and pepper, and then whisk in the remaining oil.
  • In a salad bowl, toss the watercress, cheese, nuts and warm cauliflower. Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss until well combined.
