CILANTRO-AND-MINT SALAD



Cilantro-and-Mint Salad image

It's not just cilantro-and-mint salad, of course. There is parsley as well, and also arugula and baby lettuce: a jumble of herbs and soft greens lightly dressed with lime juice and oil. It's a terrific salad to serve as a foil to spicy food, or to sprinkle on a taco as kind of green-ish version of pico de gallo.

Categories     salads and dressings, side dish

Time 15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups cilantro leaves
1 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 cup mint leaves
1 cup arugula leaves
2 cups mâche or other soft lettuce leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
3 tablespoons lime juice, or to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil, or to taste

Steps:

  • Wash the herbs and greens. Fill a large bowl or clean sink with cold water, and add the leaves. Swish them around to loosen dirt, then gently lift out and dry in a salad spinner or on clean kitchen towels. (You can do this up to a day ahead, refrigerating the dry leaves in sealed plastic bags or containers with a paper towel to absorb excess water.)
  • When ready to serve, whisk together the salt, pepper, red-pepper flakes, lime juice and olive oil in a small bowl, then check the seasonings. Put the leaves in a large bowl, drizzle the dressing over them and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately.

Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 ears fresh corn in husks
¼ cup butter, melted
2 roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
½ small red onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch salt-free lemon-herb seasoning (such as Mrs. Dash)

Steps:

  • Peel back corn husks, but leave them attached at the bottom. Remove the silks, and fold husks back up over the corn. Place on a dinner plate, and cook in the microwave for 5 minutes on High power, turning corn once half way through. Cool until cool enough to touch, then slice corn kernels from the cob and place them in a serving bowl.
  • Stir butter into the corn along with the tomatoes, jalapeno, red onion, garlic and cilantro. Season with salt, pepper, and seasoning blend. Mix well, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary. Some people like the salad warm, but I prefer to chill it a little before serving.
