Shaved brussels sprout, pomegranate and toasted hazelnut salad
Indulge in the delightful blend of shaved Brussels sprouts, juicy pomegranate, and crunchy toasted hazelnuts in this vibrant and flavorful salad.
Ingredients:
- 450g Brussels sprouts
- 1/2 cup raw hazelnuts
- 1 small pomegranate, sliced, seeds removed
- 2 lemons, juiced
- 1 teaspoon spicy mustard
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- freshly ground black pepper
- salt to taste
Instructions:
- Using a mandolin or a sharp knife, thinly slice the Brussels sprouts (being careful not to cut yourself!). In a small bowl, mix together the lemon juice, spicy mustard, maple syrup, salt, and pepper. Stir well and set aside.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the hazelnuts and spread them out in a single layer. Toast them for 5-7 minutes, or until they are lightly browned and fragrant. Remove from heat promptly to prevent burning and let them cool slightly. Rub the hazelnuts in a kitchen towel to remove the skins and allow them to cool completely. Cut the hazelnuts in half.
- Combine the sliced Brussels sprouts with the lemon-maple dressing and fold in the hazelnuts and pomegranate seeds. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking and serve!
