Raw Broccoli Salad with Yoghurt, Herb and Nut Dressing

Notes

Here is one of my favourite salads at the moment.  It uses raw broccoli and is very fast to make provided you have a blender or food processor.

You'll need

• 1 head of broccoli
• 1 clove of garlic
• 2 tbsp tahini
• 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar - I used Aspalls
• 100ml yoghurt
• 100 ml extra virgin olive oil
• 50g dill, coarsely chopped
• 50g parsley, coarsely chopped
• 100g nuts - lightly toasted and chopped. I used peanuts
• 1-2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, to taste
• salt, or to taste

To make it

1. Cut the broccoli heads into bitesize chunks, wash and set aside.
2. Set aside a tablespoon of nuts for sprinkling later.
3. Put all the other ingredients into a blender and blitz til well combined.  Not quite a puree as you still want some texture from the nuts. I used my Froothie Blender.
4. Pour it into a large bowl and check for seasoning.
5. Add the pieces of broccoli and toss together til well combined.
6. Pour into a serving platter and sprinkle with the nuts you reserved earlier.
