Best 3 Citrusy Cabbage Salad With Cumin And Coriander Recipes

AUBERGINE AND CUMIN CHARLOTTES WITH TOMATO AND CORIANDER SALAD

Steps:

• For the aubergine charlottes: Preheat the oven to broil. Slice one eggplant lengthwise into 1/4-inch/5 mm slices. Brush with olive oil and lightly season. Broil until soft and golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Cook's Note: They should not get crisp.
• Remove. Turn the oven down to 375 degrees F. Cut the other eggplant in half. Brush the surface with oil and lay it cut-side down on a baking sheet. Bake until very soft, about 40 minutes. Remove.
• Scrape the flesh from the baked eggplant halves into a bowl. Mix in the eggs, milk, and ground cumin. Season with salt and pepper. Line 6 ramekins with the grilled eggplant slices, leaving an edge hanging over. Spoon in a layer of creamed eggplant mixture, scatter over the chevre. Top with a second layer of eggplant mixture. Fold the slices in over top. Set on a baking sheet. Bake until set, about 20 minutes. Cool at least 10 minutes before turning out.
• For the tomato and coriander salad: Quarter the tomatoes. Stir through the coriander (cilantro), oil, and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Taste, and check the seasonings. Turn the charlottes out onto serving plates and put a spoonful of tomato salad alongside. Serve.

CITRUSY COUSCOUS SALAD WITH BROCCOLI AND FETA

Steps:

• To the bottom of a large serving bowl, add the orange juice, lime juice, honey, cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Whisk in the olive oil until the honey is dissolved. Mix in the scallions and half the chile; set aside.
• In a large lidded pot over medium-high heat, toast the couscous, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Add 3 cups of water, season with 1 tablespoon salt, cover and bring to a boil. Adjust the heat to maintain an active simmer and cook according to the lower end of the time frame on package's instructions, usually about 8 minutes. During the last 3 or 4 minutes of cooking (depending on the size of your florets), stir in the broccoli and cook until bright and tender, and the thickest parts are easily pierced with a fork. Drain, shake off excess water, then transfer to the serving bowl.
• Mix until the couscous has absorbed most of the dressing. Mix in the feta, pistachios, herbs, orange pieces and the remaining chile, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Eat immediately or let cool and serve at room temperature.

CABBAGE SALAD WITH TOASTED CORIANDER AND CUMIN MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• In a small skillet over high heat (or in a microwave oven at full power), toast coriander seeds and cumin seeds just until fragrant. Grind together using a mortar and pestle, and set aside. In a large bowl, combine savoy cabbage and red cabbage, and set aside.
• Prepare mayonnaise: In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolk, vinegar, shallot, chives, reserved coriander and cumin and large pinches of salt and pepper. Beginning a drop at a time, whisk in oil. As it emulsifies, add oil a little faster, in a slow steady stream. When mixture is thick, whisk in more vinegar to taste; mayonnaise should be highly seasoned.
• Fold 1/3 cup mayonnaise into cabbage. There should be enough to coat cabbage generously; add more if necessary. Cover, and refrigerate for at least an hour. Before serving, adjust seasonings, adding more salt or vinegar as needed.
