Salad with oranges
This is a varation of a salad with orangaes. There are many ways to make this Sicilian salad, this one in particular I find very good.
2 heads Belgian Endive salad (10oz.)
2 oranges
1 fennel (a bit more than 1 cup sliced)
1/2 cup thinly sliced white celery*
1/4 cup of roughly choped walnuts
3 green olives thinly sliced
lemon juice
1 tsp. mustard
3 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
1. Clean the salad and the fennel and slice them thinly.
2. Put them in a salad bowl and mix in the celery.
3. Add a spoon of lemon juice and mix it in so the salad doesn't turn brown.
4. Now peel the orange removing all the "white" inner part of the peel. Then slice them horizonally and then cut the slices into spikes.
5. Add the oranges to the salad along with the walnuts and olives.
6. In a cup mix the olive oil, mustard, a tablespoon of lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper.
7. When they are well mixed you can pour it over the salad and mix in well.
8. Check to see the the salt and pepper are as you like and then serve.
*I use the center, or heart of the celery, those stalks in the middle which are more tender and delicate.
