Zucchini, green apple, radishes, wakame, sunflower and sesame seeds flavoured with a sweet and tangy dressing. This is a fresh, healthy, detox salad.
Makes 2 servings.
Ingredinents:
For the salad
2 medium-sized zucchini
6 radishes
2 green apples (Granny Smith)
1 strip wakame seaweed, about 8 cm long
1 handful black sesame seeds
1 handful sunflower seeds
For the dressing
7 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
juice of 1 lemon
1 pinch whole sea salt
juice of 4 cm fresh ginger root
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons shoyu
½ spring onion, chopped
Directions
Dressing
Shake all the dressing ingredients together in a jar with a tight-fitting lid.
Salad
Soak the wakame in filtered or mineral water for 10 minutes. In the meantime, clean all the vegetables, then slice the radishes and ribbon the zucchini the long way with a potato peeler. Peel the apples and cut them into bite-sized chunks. Drain the wakame, discarding the fibrous central stem, and break it or cut it into pieces.
To assemble
In a salad bowl, toss and mix the vegetables, seaweed, and apple. Transfer into individual serving plates,( or keep in the bowl), sprinkle the sunflower and sesame seeds over, drizzle with the dressing and serve.
