How to make Broccoli salad
- Broccoli can be prepared in many ways with microwaving, steaming being the most nutritious while stir-frying probably the tastiest. Sure we can just have them raw too. Cut the broccoli into roughly equal sized florets then prepare them to taste. Check out: How to make broccoli
Roast the almonds, sunflower and pumpkin seeds. If we prepare broccoli in the oven then the whole thing can be done together otherwise use a tablespoon of oil for better heat distribution on the seeds.- Once the seeds get a golden brown colour, take them off heat and let them cool somewhat before adding them to the salad.
- Slice the onions, cube the cheese then add the florets and cooled down seeds into a big bowl.
- Mix extra virgin olive oil, Dijon mustard, paprika and salt. Add sour cream too for less intense, creamier flavor. Drizzle dressing at serving then sprinkle with sesame seeds.
