Broccoli and pear salad
I’m normally not that keen on savoury salads containing fruits but this broccoli and pear salad goes fantastically with roasted poultry – particularly with duck or goose. So this dish is ideal for special occasions and dinner parties.
Ingredients
Method
- Steam the broccoli over boiling water or blanch for 2-3 minutes. Drain.
- In the meantime, cut the pear in half, remove the seeds and slice.
- Heat the oil in a saucepan, fry the pear slices and walnuts for 2 or 3 minutes until golden. Add the balsamic vinegar, let it bubble for a few seconds, then turn off the heat.
- Scatter the salad leaves onto a large plate, arrange the broccoli, pears and walnuts on top. Crumble the feta (if used), then pour over the cooking juices.
