Instructions:
-
Wash the greens and soak them in vinegar water for 10 minutes.
-
Peel the purple onion and cut it in half first. Then chop into half rings and finely.
-
Pour a pinch of salt over the onions, rub them lightly and rinse them.
-
Finely chop the spring onions. Rinse and drain the lettuce, then cut into large pieces with your hands.
-
For the sauce, mix the freshly squeezed lemon juice, orange juice, olive oil, flaxseed, sumac, salt and pepper in a bowl and make them homogeneous.
-
Blend the greens, onions and a teaspoon of flaxseed with your hands without damaging them.
-
Take your salad in a large serving bowl. Before bringing it to the table, pour the sauce you prepared on it and serve. Enjoy your meal!
-
Note: Add the sauce just before serving to prevent the salt from wilting the greens. For a lighter salad, you can use mayonnaise thinned with lemon juice instead of olive oil.
