Time 1h30m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups Cooked Quinoa
2 cups Cooked Millet
4 cups safflower oil
Kosher salt
1 cup fresh or frozen peas
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon honey
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
4 cups tender greens, such as pea shoots, baby kale, baby spinach, or a combination
1/3 cup thinly sliced fresh mint leaves
2 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Spread grains on a paper towel-lined baking sheet; let stand 1 hour. Heat safflower oil in a large pot until a thermometer reaches 350 degrees. Add grains, a cup at a time. Cook until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. Remove with a fine sieve; transfer to another paper towel-lined sheet. Season with salt. (Return oil to 350 degrees before frying subsequent batches.)
  • Prepare an ice-water bath. Cook peas in a pot of salted boiling water until just tender and bright green, about 2 minutes. Transfer to ice-water bath; drain.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, lemon juice, and honey. Slowly drizzle in olive oil. Season with salt and red-pepper flakes.
  • In a large serving bowl, combine tender greens, fried grains, peas, mint, and scallions. Drizzle with vinaigrette. Season with salt and serve immediately.

SUGAR SNAP PEA SALAD WITH RADISHES, MINT AND RICOTTA SALATA



Sugar Snap Pea Salad With Radishes, Mint and Ricotta Salata image

There's a reason pea salad is usually slathered in mayonnaise. Just try to get those tiny rolling orbs to stay on your fork without it. That's why when it comes to pea salads, choose sugar snaps. They have the same bright sweetness as shelled peas but, eaten pod and all (no shucking required), they're easier to grab. Here, raw sugar snap peas are tossed with radishes, fresh mint, ricotta salata and a simple lemon-balsamic vinaigrette for a easy salad that's sweet, salty, creamy and fresh tasting.

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
