This delicious shaved Brussel sprouts salad with corn and feta reminds me of @tashascafe’s house salad but it’s different. Ideally, you have to shave the sprouts using a mandolin but if you don’t have one (or are too scared to slice your fingers – a true risk!!) just shred as thinly as you can. Prepare the salad and the dressing early on, and mix only when ready to serve.

This delicious shaved Brussel sprouts salad with corn and feta reminds me of @tashascafe’s house salad but it’s different. Ideally, you have to shave the sprouts using a mandolin but if you don’t have one (or are too scared to slice your fingers - a true risk!!) just shred as thinly as you can. Prepare the salad and the dressing early on, and mix only when ready to serve.
Ingredients:
Ingredients
- 3 cups (about 350grs) brussel sprouts, shaved
- 2 fresh corn on the cob, boiled and sliced of the cob into big chunks
- 1 small bunch of chives, chopped
- 6 green onions, chopped
- 1 handful of roughly chopped coriander
- 1/2 Boston lettuce, (soft dark lettuce leaves) chopped into medium pieces
- A handful roasted peanuts, crushed
- 200grs feta crumbled , use authentic Greek feta
METHOD
- 1)
Gently mix and layer all the prepared veggies in a large serving dish, making sure to keep the corn in big chunks.
Scatter the chives and the coriander on the top. Finish with the crumbled feta and the chopped peanuts. - 2)
Variations:
1- I used a moutarde à l’ancienne with chopped pickles by @martinpouret from @odeondubai. You can use simply a bit of moutarde à l’ancienne and chop some pickles- then reduce the vinegar.
2- you can add half a shallot or onion, and blend everything using a food processor.
Notes
For the dressing, mix/whisk in a small bowl: 2 tsp Dijon mustard, about 3 tsp good quality apple cider vinegar (or your preferred vinegar) and about 4 tbsp evoo. Season with fresh cracked pepper and salt.
