These days I enjoy making salads for lunch and dinner, not only because they are light (I seriously need to keep my weight on watch) but I love the part of inventing my own salad dressing! Like an artist play with different colors to create one that he has in mind, I play with flavors, mix and match to get what satiates my taste buds.
Green bean is my all-time favorite, especially when it comes to boiled or stir fries. This is one wonder vegetable that is so versatile to contain any seasoning that you impart. And quite recently I have started developing a taste for mushrooms, and hence I had a pack of white mushrooms handy, I made good use of it! Well, in terms of secondary ingredients used this one is not too different from the Honey Glazed Roasted Grapes & Chickpea Salad I made last week.
White mushroom - 250 gram, cleaned, sliced lengthwise
Potatoes - 1 small, cut into cubes
Chicken salami - 3-4 pieces, cut into bite sized pieces (optional)
Oranges - 2 (1 in segments and the other juice extracted)
Garlic - 5 cloves, crushed
Pepper powder - 1 teaspoon
Lime - 1/2
Salt to taste
Honey - 1 tablespoon
2. Heat oil in the same pan, add crushed garlic and the veggies along with salt to taste. Saute for a couple of seconds.
3. Add half the orange extract and cover and cook for another couple of minutes.
4. Sprinkle pepper powder over, stir well to combine. Remove from heat.
5. Add orange segments, squeeze over the lime, drizzle honey and finally the leftover orange extract on top. Toss it nicely and serve!
