Categories     Salad

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup sliced almonds
5 to 6 ounces baby arugula
2 oranges, peeled and sliced into thin rounds
2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup thinly sliced and roughly chopped radishes
Pinch of ground cinnamon, to sprinkle on top
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • First, toast the almonds: In a small skillet over medium heat, warm the almonds until they are fragrant and starting to turn golden on the edges, stirring frequently (careful, they'll burn!), about 5 minutes. Transfer them to a bowl to cool.
  • Place the arugula on a large serving platter or into a large serving bowl. Arrange the oranges, toasted almonds, goat cheese and radishes on top. Sprinkle the top lightly with a pinch or two of cinnamon. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, honey and salt. Whisk together until blended. Taste, and add a little more honey if it's unpleasantly tart.
  • Once you're ready to serve, drizzle the dressing lightly over the salad (you might have a little extra), toss, and serve immediately.

WILD ARUGULA AND BEET SALAD WITH ORANGE, WALNUTS AND TARRAGON



Wild Arugula and Beet Salad With Orange, Walnuts and Tarragon image

This is a salad filled with contrasting sweet and peppery flavors. Pungent wild arugula contrasts beautifully with sweet beets, anisy tarragon and juicy oranges. If you can find purslane, it makes a great addition to the salad, with its earthy flavor and almost juicy, delicate crunch. You can use a mix of colors for the beets. I roasted golden and red beets together, and the red beets bled into the outside layer of the golden beets, making their color striking in the salad.

1/2 teaspoon grated orange peel
4 medium-size heads Belgian endive, separated into leaves
