This hearty buckwheat salad is packed with flavour as well as nutrients. Belgian endive and roasted walnuts add crunchiness and earthiness while aromatic mint leaves adds just the right amount of zing, freshness, colour and texture. The pleasant bitterness in Belgian endive pairs perfectly with the sweetness of roasted carrots and orange honey dressing. If you don't have buckwheat, simply use your favourite grains or even quinoa instead.

SaladDressing
  • 150 g Buckwheat, rinsed
  • 600 g Carrots, tops trimmed
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tsp Coriander powder
  • 150 g Belgian endive, leaves separated
  • Mint leaves
  • 50 g Walnuts, toasted & coarsely chopped
  • 100 ml Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 100 ml Fresh squeezed orange juice
  • 2 tbsp White wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • Sea salt and freshly milled black pepper
  1. Preheat oven to 200C/400F. Arrange the carrots in a baking tray, drizzle with olive oil and season with ground coriander, salt and pepper. Roast for 25 minutes, or until just tender and beginning to caramelise. Set aside to cool.
  2. Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add buckwheat and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until toasted. Allow to cool for 5 minutes. Bring a saucepan of water to the boil over high heat. Add in buckwheat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes or until al dente. Drain and refresh under cold running water. Spread over a tray lined with paper towel to dry.
  3. To make the dressing, blend all ingredients in a blender or food processor. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Combine the buckwheat, carrots (cut them into smaller pieces if too large), Belgian endive leaves, mint and roasted walnuts in a large bowl. Drizzle with dressing and toss to combine.

No tengo problemas con las ensaladas, me gustan todas y esta también por su mezcla de ingredientes tan buena. Eso si, no le pondría casi nada de picante y eliminaría el cilantro, no nos gusta nada. Por lo demás es perfecta.
Un beso.

This dish looks amazing and comes with another great flavour explosion by the sounds of things.

I particularly like the sound of the orange/honey dressing, so I shall be making a note of that recipe for sure!

Have a great weekend :)

I love the idea of roasted carrots in this salad, and this salad is a good way to make up for indulging in that sweet and salty giant chocolate cookie!!!

Not only do I love the flavors in this hearty salad, I think it would be so fun to eat in the Belgian endive 'boats'.

This looks delicious. I love your boat serving “tacos”. If you threw in a meat it would taste great as a taco filling too. Happy weekend!

This is beautiful, and I love carrots! But… Wait for it… I have never in my life eaten buckwheat. I know that grains are supposed to be good for us, maybe I should give this a try.
