This is a fantastic winter salad with amazing colour and a good sweet/savory balance. It’s full of vitamin C to keep away colds in the chilly months. It’s good to use a mandoline to help you to slice things finely which brings out the flavour more. Always try to use organic ingredients where possible.
Serves 1-2
Ingredients
- 1/4 of a red cabbage
- 1 fennel bulb
- 4-5 mandarins
- 1 lemon
- 1 orange
- a good splash of cold-pressed olive oil
- a sprinkling of himalayan salt
Method
- Using a mandoline, shred the cabbage and fennel. If you don’t have a mandoline you could use a food processor or slice finely with a knife.
- Halve the orange and slice a few pieces off with the mandoline to save as a garnish. Juice the rest of the orange and the lemon.
- Peel the mandarins and break into segments.
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl to serve.
Optional Extra: This is also great with some chunks of avocado mushed into the salad. It combines nicely with the juices.
