The best broccoli sadad I've had! I have cheated and used precooked bacon crumbles. Works just as well. Also I have replaced about 1/2 of the mayo with yogurt. This recipe is so good.

Time 27m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 -2 tablespoon curry powder
2 1/4 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
7 cups broccoli (cut into small florets) or 7 cups cauliflower (cut into small florets)
1 large carrot, sliced paper thin
1 (10 ounce) box couscous
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, well drained and rinsed (garbanzo beans)
1/2 cup olive oil (or to taste)
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger (or to taste)
1 1/2 cups feta cheese, crumbled
4 -5 green onions, chopped
1 cup sliced almonds, toasted
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan stir the curry powder over medium heat until fragrant and toasted (about 1 minute).
  • Add in 2-1/4 cups water with 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Add in veggie florets and carrots to the saucepan with the water and curry; bring to full a boil, cover and cook 1 minute.
  • Remove from heat and mix in couscous; cover and let stand until the couscous softens (about 5-6 minutes).
  • Transfer the couscous and veggies to a large bowl.
  • Mix in garbanzo beans, oil, wine vinegar, minced fresh ginger; toss to combine.
  • Cool to room temperature or chill (make certain that the couscous is completely cooled or the feta will melt).

  • Add in salt and pepper to taste.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, vibrant broccoli: Look for broccoli florets that are deep green in color and tightly closed. Avoid any florets that are yellow or wilted.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the broccoli: This will help to prevent the florets from becoming mushy.
  • Blanch the broccoli for a few minutes before adding it to the salad: This will help to preserve its color and crunch.
  • Use a variety of toppings: This will add flavor and texture to the salad. Some good options include nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and cheese.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time: This will allow the flavors to meld together and will make it easier to assemble the salad when you're ready to serve it.

Conclusion:

Curry broccoli salad is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect curry broccoli salad that will be a hit with everyone who tries it.
