Ingredients
Salad Ingredients
- 250 grams White cup mushrooms, quartered (or button mushrooms with soft stems)
- ½ cup Red bell pepper, diced (capsicum)
- ¼ cup Spring onion, sliced
- ¼ cup Parsley leaves, chopped
Dressing Ingredients
- ⅓ cup Freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic glaze (or balsamic vinegar as a substitute)
- ⅓ teaspoon Salt (or to taste)
- ⅙ teaspoon Black cracked pepper (or to taste)
Instructions
- Combine the Vegetables: In a large bowl, combine the quartered white cup mushrooms, sliced spring onion, diced red bell pepper, and chopped parsley leaves. Mix gently to blend the fresh ingredients evenly.
- Prepare the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the freshly squeezed orange juice, balsamic glaze (or vinegar), salt, and cracked black pepper until the mixture is well combined and slightly emulsified.
- Toss the Salad: Pour the dressing over the mixed vegetables and toss carefully until all the ingredients are evenly coated with the flavorful dressing.
- Chill and Serve: Cover the salad and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together, then serve fresh and enjoy.
Notes
- You can substitute white cup mushrooms with button mushrooms, but ensure the stems are soft and edible.
- If balsamic glaze is unavailable, use regular balsamic vinegar as a substitute for the dressing.
- Adjust salt and pepper according to your taste preference.
- This salad is best served chilled and consumed within a day for optimum freshness.
