One serving of this crunchy salad has 150 per cent of a day's requirement of vitamin C. By cooking broccoli minimally in little water, you preserve the maximum amount of this water-soluble and heat-sensitive vitamin.
Ingredients
- 1 bunch broccoli
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced Spanish onion
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1/2 tsp grated orange rind
- 2 tbsp orange juice
- 1-1/2 tsp vinegar
- 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 Pinch pepper
Preparation
Cut broccoli florets from stems. Cut florets into bite-size pieces; peel and cut stems into thin slices.
In large skillet or shallow saucepan, bring 1/4 cup (50 mL) water to boil; reduce heat to medium. Add broccoli and onion; cook, covered, for 3 to 5 minutes or until broccoli is tender-crisp. With slotted spoon, transfer to bowl.
In small bowl, whisk together oil, orange rind and juice, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper until blended; pour over broccoli mixture. Toss to coat.
