Fresh and Tasty Orange and Radish Salad -Perfect Accompaniment for Lamb Tagine


Family Dinner
Katie was making a Lamb Tagine with Cous Cous,
She asked for a side dish
Orange and Radish Salad came to mind
so I did a bit of research
First I found a salad on one of my posts, which would do

Also if you have a good look at this post there is a wonderful Chocolate Orange Cake
Then I found a recipe from  Yotam Ottolenghi
Used that as a base and here is what I came up with
It was very popular
It fed 7 as a side dish

5 large oranges peels and segmented
2 bunches of Radishes topped, tailed and sliced
1 medium red onion finest sliced
2 tablespoon chopped parsley
Handful of coriander leaves torn
Handful of mint leaves torn

1 cos lettuce torn into pieces

Dressing

   2 tablespoons lemon juice
   1 garlic clove, peeled  and crushed
   1 teaspoon orange blossom water
   1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    4 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
    Sea salt
    Freshly  ground black pepper

Segment the oranges into a large bowl
Add radishes and sliced red onion
Add dressing and chopped parsley
You can make this ahead
Taste and adjust the seasoning if you think it needs it

Find a nice flat bowl
Throw in the Cos lettuce
Spread the Orange and Radish mixture
Add the other fresh herbs just before serving
Very pretty and delicious
