Red cabbage salad

This colourful winter salad makes my heart sing. It’s colourful, flavourful and easy to make so what’s not to love.

PREP TIME 15 MIN

INGREDIENTS

• 1 very small red cabbage or half of a medium one
• 1 bag (125 g) baby spinach
• 2 mandarins
• seeds of half a pomegranate
• a handful of cashews and pumpkin seeds
• olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper for the dressing
• crumbled feta (optional)

1. Discard the outer leaves of the cabbage, cut in half and take out the hard inner cord. Slice into thin slices either with a knife or a mandolin. Place the slices on a serving tray or platter.
2. Add the baby spinach to the platter.
3. Peel the mandarins and separate into segments.
4. Add the mandarin segments and the pomegranate seeds onto the platter. Top with the cashews and pumpkin seeds. If you want, you can roast them for a few minutes in a pan without oil.
5. Whisk together the oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper and drizzle it on top of the salad.
6. If using, add the crumbled feta on top.

BUON APPETITO!
