How I loved the crunch of this salad, and so different from our conventional salads too! I adored lightly sauteed broccoli in any case, so to have an entire salad made from that, and drizzled with a touch of savory peanut dressing was perfect.
The addition of fava beans and spring onion accentuated that this is a dish of Spring. The dressing is not quite enough to cover the entire salad, but for the level of flavor packed in it, you do not need to much anyway.
Ingredients:
2 heads broccoli, florettes only
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 cup cooked peeled fava beans
2 spring onion, sliced thinly
1/2 cup peanuts
black sesame, to garnish
For the dressing:
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 Tbsp vinegar
1 Tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp honey
1 tsp sesame oil
2-3 Tbsp hot water
Method:
To make the dressing, whisk all the ingredients together and thin accordingly with hot water; set aside.
In a large pan with 2 tablespoons olive oil, saute the broccoli florettes and a dash of salt for no more than 5 minutes, just enough to turn the bright green and retain a healthy crunch.
Put the sauteed broccoli in the serving dish, top with the cooked and peeled fava beans, sliced spring onion, peanuts, dressing, and a final sprinkling of black sesame.
Serve immediately.
