 STEPS:

  • If you haven't cooked your black rice already, do this now by placing well rinsed (or even previously soaked) black rice with twice amount of water and some salt and cook it until is soft but not overcooked (around 30min).
  • In the meantime preheat the oven (180-200C) and break down your cauliflower into smaller pieces. Spread on a baking tray, add salt, turmeric, black pepper and drizzle olive oil and massage well! Bake until golden for about 20min. 
  • While waiting prepare the dressing for you salad by combining olive oil with squeezed orange, mustard and ACV and adding some salt to taste. Stir it well or shake in the jar and leave it for later.
  • Once your rice is cooked and your cauliflower is ready let it both cool and prepare other ingredients for the plating (pomegranate, sprouts, roasted hazelnuts, fresh chopped parsley and kraut of course).
  • Start your plating with rice, drizzling some dressing over it, then adding some cauliflower, sprouts, pomegranate and krauts. Top it with hazelnuts, sumac, pinch of salt and finally add a big drizzle of dressing! Enjoy!
