Sounds just the ticket for a hot summer night. Ingredients:
2 heads romaine lettuce |
1 bunch watercress or arugula |
1/2 cup black oil-cured or kalamata olives, pitted, sliced in half |
1/2 red onion, sliced thinnly |
2 oranges, peeled and chopped |
dressing |
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil |
salt and black pepper to taste |
1/4 cup orange juice |
2 tbsp. sherry vinegar |
Directions:
1. Wash and dry the romaine and the watercress. Toss in a large bowl with the other ingredients. Add freshly ground black pepper to taste (the olives may be salty so don't add any salt at this point). Wisk the dressing ingredients, seasoning it to taste. Slowly pour the dressing over the salad while tossing well to coat all. Be careful not to use too much dressing for the amount of greens. Garnish with very thin slices of orange and orange zest
