Hey there!
Today I wanted to share with you a salad that I made. In the last week I craved a lot for salad, I needed that freshness! Also my room mate really enjoy the salads I make, so I just thought "let's post it, maybe other people find it too!". And here it comes!
Kind of italian Pasta Salad
What you need (3-4 Portions):
- 500g pasta
- 3 "Maultaschen"/filled pasta squares
- Arugula
- Feta-Cheese
- 1 onion
- 2-3 garlic cloves
- 1 zucchini
- 4tbs olive oil
- 4tbs apple cider (depense on you)
- balsamic reduction
- salt n' pepper
- sunflower seeds
So first cook the pasta, i took Penne for that, because its nicer to eat, but take what ever you want.
Meanwhile you cutting all of the veggies you've got. I like it very finely chopped, because it's more flavourful when you've got every composition well balanced in every bite. So put that all in one bowl. Than add the Pasta to it.
The Maultaschen/filled pasta squares (very popular in germany) I cut in slices and fry them in olive oil, than also add it to the salad. Mix everything together in start seasoning with the vinigrette. Fry some sunflowerseed in a dry pan.
Let the salad rest for 10 min. or something, to increase the flavour. Than top the salad with feta-cheese and the sunflowerseeds!
Enjoy!
I really like to variate with "saladstyles". There is so much you can to with it! Especially arugula is a very aromatic salad, which I really like to use multifunctional in my kitchen.
I have to say, it was more like a freestyle salad, with things I have left and wanted to use. But I think, thats great to process things that you anyway wanted to use and until now I was never dissapointed.
I'll do a lot more salads and also dishes that I wanted to share here, but next time I will take a good camera and document it more, so you can experience it more easier and nicer.
Ah, but one tip.. I would not recommented it to eat it on a saturday night, when you having a date or something, because the garlic could be a little bit smelly.. I'll stay at home tonight, so I will eat a lot more!!! Haha
Hope you enjoyed it. If you have any recipes for salad or something to say, I would be happy to hear from you. I'm always interessted to learn more dishes!
Pls leave upvote if you liked it !
Have a great day :)
