Cold Radish, Orange, and Fennel Salad
This recipe is one of Lahcen’s own creations and a great summer treat. It has a surprising contrast in tastes between the bite of the radishes and the sweet taste of the oranges and the orange flower water. Although it is not a traditional recipe, it uses some ingredients that are essential in Moroccan cuisine.
For 4 people
* 1 bunch of radish (approx. 20 small radishes)
* 5 navel oranges
* 2 fennel plants
* 3 soup spoons of orange flower water
* 1 soup spoon of sugar
Put sugar and orange flower water into a big bowl. Slice radishes into small slices. Peel the orange with a knife, so as to remove the white skin. Cut out wedges of the orange. Cut the fennel bulb into small slices. Don’t use the branches of the fennel. Mix all ingredients together in the bowl. Cool in the refrigerator for 20 minutes and serve. This recipe will be even more delicious when served next day.
