Menu a la Harts Brussels Sprouts, Peanut and Pumpkin Seed Salad HARTS TEAM TIP To keep stainless steel looking like new, wash in a solution of one-part vinegar and one-part water. Great for kettles and metal kitchen tools. Sarah This warm salad is the perfect way to spruce up Brussels sprouts. Long gone are the days of the over-boiled, slimy mini-cabbages – here it’s all about lightly browned, crunchy little gems. The toasted peanuts and pumpkin seeds work magic, bringing out the savoury nuttiness of the sprouts. Ingredients Serves 2 40g dried cranberries Zest and juice of 1 lemon 150g quinoa 2 spring onions, finely sliced lengthways Rapeseed oil for frying 250g Brussels sprouts, cut in half 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds 2 tbsp roughly chopped peanuts Flaked sea salt and cracked black pepper Fresh coriander, roughly chopped, to garnish Method Put the cranberries in a small bowl and add the lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Leave to soak. Put the quinoa in a pan with a pinch of salt and cover with three times the amount of water. Bring to the boil, then leave to simmer gently for 10–12 minutes until the quinoa is cooked and the tail has separated from the seed. Drain in a sieve and tip into a mixing bowl. Add the soaked cranberries, the spring onions, lemon zest and a pinch of pepper. Mix well. Heat a little oil in a frying pan and sauté the Brussels sprouts until lightly browned. Add the pumpkin seeds, peanuts and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for a minute longer to brown the seeds and peanuts. To serve, place the quinoa on a large serving platter, top with the Brussels sprouts mixture and garnish with some chopped coriander.
