    Recipe for a crunchy cabbage salad with a tangy dressing

    Recipe for a crunchy cabbage salad with a vinaigrette dressing.

    Recipe for a crunchy cabbage salad with a vinaigrette dressing

    Finely chop a single huge cucumber

    shredded 1/3 of a full head of green cabbage

    chopping up a third of a whole red cabbage

    cut out finely chop or julienne 1/3 of a medium onion an average-sized carrot

    Two cloves of minced garlic, around 20 grams, and walnuts, approximately

     

    1/4 milligram of salt (divided and added according to taste)

     

    The recipe calls for two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.

    Two tablespoons of your favorite mustard type, one tablespoon of all-natural honey

    vinegar produced from rice, measuring one teaspoon

    Use one teaspoon of soy sauce.

    Recipe for a crunchy cabbage salad with a vinaigrette dressing.

    Preparing the veggies is the first stage. Prepare a big salad bowl by finely shredding the red and green cabbage. By gently coating the green cabbage with a quarter teaspoon of salt and massaging it in, you may bring out its natural tenderness.

     

    Chop the cucumber and toss it in with the cabbages in the casserole. If you’d like, you may top the cucumber with a little of the leftover salt.

    Put the thinly sliced onion in the bowl once you’ve done so. After that, slice the carrot lengthwise into thin matchsticks (julienne) or grate it into thin slices; then, add it to the dish with the other veggies.

     

    Be careful to mince the walnuts well so they retain their delicious crunch. Those should go in the salad, too.

    The next step is to apply the dressing. In a small bowl, add the rice vinegar, oil, honey, mustard, garlic powder, and soy sauce. Stir to blend. Mix them with a whisk until a dressing is formed, which should be emulsified and very smooth.

    Adjust the seasonings to taste after tasting the dressing. You may change the sweetness by adding a bit more honey, and the sourness by adding a little more vinegar.

    Toss the salad to cover it well once the dressing has been poured over it. To get the most out of the flavors, let the salad rest for at least 10 minutes before serving.

    Just spin the salad one more before you eat it. Add additional salt if you think it needs it.

    This salad is perfect as an appetiser or as a main meal depending on the amount of protein you want to add. In addition to being a healthy side dish for dinner, this is also a fantastic choice for picnics and potlucks.

    Appreciate the crunch of the cucumber and cabbage in your handcrafted salad, which is topped with a spicy mustard dressing.

    • Seasonings: Garlic powder, salt, and pepper enhance the overall taste.

    2. Prepare the Coating: Set up three shallow dishes – one with beaten eggs, one with flour seasoned with salt and pepper, and one with a mixture of breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan.
    3. Coat the Ravioli: Dip each ravioli first in flour, then in beaten egg, and finally coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture.
    4. Fry the Ravioli: Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pan to 375°F (190°C). Fry the ravioli in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
    5. Serve: Serve hot with marinara sauce, pesto, or your favorite dipping sauce on the side.

    Storage Options:

    • Refrigerate: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven to retain crispiness.

    Ingredients

    • 1 package about 18 ounces refrigerated ravioli (cheese or meat-filled)
    • 2 large eggs
    • 2 tablespoons water
    • 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs
    • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

    • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • Vegetable oil for frying
    • Marinara sauce for serving

    Instructions

    Prepare the Ravioli:

    • Begin by laying out the ravioli on paper towels to remove any excess moisture. This step is crucial for ensuring the breading adheres properly.

    Set Up Breading Station:

    • In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and water until well combined. This will serve as your egg wash.
    • In another shallow bowl, mix the Italian breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried oregano, and salt. This mixture will be your breading.

    Bread the Ravioli:

    • Dip each ravioli first into the egg wash, ensuring both sides are coated. Allow any excess to drip off.
    • Then, dredge the ravioli in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to coat well on both sides. Place the breaded ravioli on a plate or wire rack. Repeat with all the ravioli.

    Fry the Ravioli:

    • Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
    • Fry the ravioli in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
    • Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried ravioli to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

    Serve:

    • Serve the fried ravioli warm with a side of marinara sauce for dipping. Garnish with additional grated Parmesan cheese or fresh herbs if desired.

    • Reheat: Gently reheat in the microwave or oven, covered, to keep the chicken moist.

    INGREDIENTS

    • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    • 1 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt for a healthier option)
    • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1 teaspoon onion powder
    • 1 teaspoon dried herbs (such as thyme, oregano, or parsley)
    • Salt and pepper, to taste
    • Paprika, for sprinkling

    INSTRUCTIONS

    1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Chicken:
      • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
      • If the chicken breasts are very thick, pound them to even thickness with a meat mallet for even cooking. Place the chicken breasts in a lightly greased baking dish.
    2. Mix the Topping:
      • In a bowl, combine the sour cream, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, dried herbs, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
    3. Apply the Mixture:
      • Spread the sour cream mixture evenly over the chicken breasts. Ensure all parts of the chicken are covered.
    4. Season:
      • Sprinkle a little paprika over the top for added color and flavor.
    5. Bake:
      • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and no longer pink in the center. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts.
    6. Broil (Optional):
      • For a more golden and crispy top, broil the chicken for an additional 2-3 minutes after baking, watching closely to avoid burning.
    7. Serve:
      • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after removing it from the oven to allow the juices to redistribute.
      • Serve warm, garnished with additional herbs if desired.

    Susage ball

    Serve these three-ingredient sausage balls as a Christmas hors d’oeuvre, game-day snack, brunch treat, or party starter, and they will definitely satisfy the crowd. Unbeatable savory, cheesy flavor is created by the combination of sharp Cheddar cheese, store-bought biscuit mix, and savory sausage. These are really delicious!
