LIGHTLY WILTED SPINACH SALAD

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Time 10m

Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons canola oil
1 small red onion, peeled and grated on a cheese grater
1 clove garlic, peeled and lightly smashed
Kosher salt
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
3/4 pound spinach leaves, stemmed, washed and dried
3 eggs, hard boiled, peeled and chopped

Steps:

  • In a small skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of the canola oil. Add the onion and garlic clove and cook, stirring gently, for 2 minutes. Season lightly with salt. Discard the garlic clove. Whisk in the cider vinegar and add 1 teaspoon canola oil. Taste for seasoning. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Place a large heatproof bowl over low heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil. When the bowl is warm remove it from the heat and add the spinach. Season lightly with salt and toss with a spoon so the spinach gets coated with the oil and wilts slightly, 1 minute. The spinach should only be partially wilted and still appear somewhat raw. Pour off any water that might accumulate in the bottom of the bowl from wilting and stir in the onion and dressing from the skillet. Add chopped hard-boiled egg. Serve immediately.

Fresh baby spinach, sliced mushrooms, and boiled eggs are topped with a hot bacon vinaigrette with caramelized onions. Very satisfying and earthy! This is also great topped with grape tomatoes for a little tart pop reminiscent of a nice BLT.

WILTED SPINACH SALAD WITH ROASTED KUMARA (SWEET POTATO)



Wilted Spinach Salad With Roasted Kumara (Sweet Potato) image

My daughter made me this salad once. She said that it was from the Meal-in-a-minute TV advert but this version doesn't use any Watties products. (Not that there is anything wrong with bottled sauces but I prefer to make my own dressing) This is a nice easy recipe that makes a good side dish to some steamed fish.

2 oranges
6 nasturtium petals (optional)
2 teaspoons coarse grain mustard
1/2 lemon (zest and juice)
salt
pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons dill weed
