this week I would like to tell you about a dish I make rather often.
I try to buy only season vegetables, possible organic..
so when you arrive in February..
you badly wish, dream of fresh sallads!

as it is not possible to eat fresh salads (at least produced nearby) in this period..
you have to invent something by your self :)

this dish has not got a very invitating colour, but I assure it is good :) )
I like very much raw vegtables, sometimes they are even better then cooked!
like with the sun artichoke…fantastic raw,
but taste to much artichoke as cooked for me :) )
also the beetrot, the fennel, the sellery, the leek are fantastic raw.
radish give a kick to any anonymous sallad don’t it? :)
try cauliflower raw with a sauce made of yogurt and crushed mustard seeds
mmmmmm :) )))
well, I think you got my point…let’s get on with the recipe :) )

you need:

for two persons

90gr of oats seed
peel and juice of one orange

for the cruditè:
1 carrot
2 topinambur (sun artichoke)
fresh leaves of green sellery
a piece of leek
1 endive (Cichorium endiva)
1 fennel
some fresh mint leaves for decoration (these are from my herbal garden :) )

cook the aots seed like rice, fot 90 gr you will need ca 30min.
let cool.
wisk orange juice, with half of the peel and some olive oil (or other vegtable oil)
add some salt, pepper and cinnamon
season the cooled oats seed and but aside to marinate.

chop all the vegetables very very tiny.
add olive oil (or other vegetable oil) and mix well.
let rest for 30min.
then mix with the oats seed
before serving, season with the rest of the orange peel and some mint leaves.

brigidaa_te:
you can make a bigger quantity of chopped veggies
and keep it in the fridge for a couple of days…
if you keep any longer, I better cook it before using it.
this is also excellent to season pasta or gnocchi.
see you next week at anna’s cool findes
