Foodites - Asian Greens with Sweet Shallot Dressing

In honour of spring, our recipe this month features local greens from Pattison Farms and wonderful fresh halibut from our partner at Sushi-Mon Wes Erikson.

The lovely and talented Connie Earl paired this salad with Cedar Creek Estate Select Chardonnay, which rounded out the flavours of the meal beautifully.

Enjoy!

Asian Greens with Sweet Shallot Dressing

This dressing is also delicious on fish or chicken; add a piece of seared halibut to the greens and you’ve got a healthy and easy meal.

1 shallot, grated on the fine portion of a cheese grater
1” piece ginger, grated on the fine portion of a cheese grater
3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari

Juice of one lime

2 tsp sugar
2 tsp sake
1 tbsp sesame oil
½ cup grapeseed oil
2 green onions, sliced thinly on the bias
1 tbsp chopped cilantro

Method:
1. In a small bowl, add the first 9 ingredients; combine well using a whisk.
2. Once the mixture is combined, slowly drizzle the grapeseed oil into the mixture until it is well combined. Stir in the green onions and cilantro
3. The mixture will separate as it sits; give it a good mix before serving.
