Serves 2
Ingredients:
1 head of broccoli
1 small red onion
A handful of walnuts
3 heaped tbsp natural or coconut yoghurt
4 tbsp Black tahini and miso dressing (see recipe)
A handful of pomegranate seeds
Method:
- Cut the broccoli into florets, and steam or gently boil them for 5 minutes, until tender. Drain and rinse under cold water to prevent further cooking.
- Dice the red onion and roughly chop most of the walnuts, leaving a few pieces to serve.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the yoghurt and 3 tablespoons of the black tahini and miso dressing (if refrigerated, mix with a fork, loosen with a little olive oil, or keep at room temperature for 30 minutes before using).
- Add the broccoli, red onion and walnuts to the mixing bowl with the yoghurt and stir to coat. Plate up and finish with the remaining walnut pieces, drizzle over the remaining 1 tablespoon of the black tahini and miso dressing, and then scatter over a few pomegranate seeds.
Black Tahini and Miso Dressing:
Whisk together 1 tbsp black sesame tahini paste, 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar, 1 tbsp raw apple cider vinegar, 1 tsp miso paste and 1 tsp salt until combined. Keep refrigerated and use within 5 days.
