How To Make Davidstow® 18 Month Extra Mature cheddar, Kale, Red Onion, Pumpkin & Quinoa Winter Salad:
Ingredients:
1 red onion, cut into quarters
2 red chillies
2 parsnips, peeled then cut into 4 pieces lengthways, remove the core
100g curly kale (2/3 blanched, 1/3 friend – for texture)
20g pumpkin seeds (roasted)
Pinch of linseeds
40g cooked quinoa black and white
20g honey
15g tarragon vinegar
30g virgin olive oil
Shaved Davidstow® 18 Month Extra Mature
How To Make:
1. Preheat a deep fat fryer to 150°C.
2. Roasted vegetables: Wrap the red onions, chillis and parsnips all separately in tin foil parcels with a drizzle of olive oil, few sprigs of rosemary and salt.
3. Place these onto a roasting tray and bake until soft. Be careful when unwrapping the tin foil parcels, as you wouldn’t want to burn yourself.
4. Quinoa: Cook the white and black quinoa in separate saucepans of simmering salted water, until just cooked. Drain well and mix with a drizzle of olive oil.
5. Curly kale: Wash the kale very well and drain. Then fry 1/3 of the kale in a hot frying pan with a drizzle of vegetable oil until crispy. Drain well on kitchen paper and season with fine salt. Take the other 2/3 of the kale and cook in boiling salted water for 2 minutes until tender. Drain well.
6. Dressing: Mix the honey and tarragon vinegar together in a bowl and slowly whisk in the virgin olive oil.
7. Now mix all the above ingredients together in a bowl and season with salt and black pepper. This is best served warm.
