How to Make Aromatic Broccoli And Cauliflower Salad
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets, and 2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, then add 1 large head of broccoli, cut into florets.
- Cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until vegetables are crisp-tender but still bright green. Do not overcook!
- Immediately drain the vegetables in a colander. Do not rinse.
- While vegetables are cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 teaspoon of cumin, 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric, 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder, and a pinch of red pepper flakes (optional). Let sizzle for 15-20 seconds, stirring constantly, before adding the steamed vegetables and 1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced.
- Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the spices are fragrant and the onions have softened slightly.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and the zest of 1 lemon. Transfer the salad to a serving bowl.
- Let the salad stand for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional).
