Description
Toss a salad that is supremely blissful, filling and very healthy to dig in.
Ingredients
- (Soaking Time : 8 hours ; Preparation Time : 15 mins ; Cooking Time : 15 mins )
- Wheat Berry – 200 grams (soaked & cooked)
- Cottage Cheese – 100 grams (cut in to mini cubes)
- Sweet Corn – a big fistful (boiled)
- Onion – 1 small – thinly diced
- Bell Pepper – 1 small – thinly diced
- Black Olives – 10 to 12 – halved
- Honey & Mustard Dressing – 1 to 2 tbsp (I used store bought)
- Apple Cider Vinegar – 1 to 2 tsp
- Black pepper Powder – 2 tsp – to taste
- Salt – to taste
- Mint Leaves – a fistful – washed and roughly chopped
Instructions
- Wash the wheat berries well in running water and soak it with adequate water for 6-8 hours or overnight.
- Cook it in a pressure cooker up to 5 or 6 whistles. The berries would be done well and chewy to the bite. Alternately you can bring it to a boil in a sauce pan with enough water and cook on a medium flame for a good 40-45 minutes.
- Drain the water from the cooked grains in a colander.
- Tip it in a mixing bowl. Add cottage cheese, sweet corn,diced onion and pepper. Tip in the black olives and toss.
- Add the honey and mustard dressing along with apple cider vinegar.
- Season it with salt and pepper. Finally add the mint leaves. Fluff it up.
- Let the salad stand at room temperature undisturbed for a good 45 minutes to 1 hour so that the flavours are infused thoroughly.
- Enjoy !
