MY FAVOURITE RAW BROCCOLI SALAD
Fresh and crunchy broccoli laced with the tang of red onion, the sweetness of red apple and the crunch of walnuts, all united in a maple mustard dressing.
Ingredients
- 1 broccoli
- 1/2 red onion
- 1 apple
- 60 g walnuts
DRESSING
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1.5 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 garlic clove minced
- sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
-
Chop both the florets and stalk of the broccoli into small even pieces. Finely dice the red onion, slice the apple into thin matchsticks and roughly chop the walnuts. Combine in a large bowl.
-
To make the dressing, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, dijon mustard, maple syrup, garlic and a generous sprinkle of sea salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
-
Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and mix well to combine. This salad can be served straight away, but is far better after it has had time to chill and marinate in the fridge (20 minutes at least). Transfer to a serving bowl and finish with a crack of black pepper.

Just what I was looking for! There are not enough raw broc recipies around. This kinda ticks all the boxes, even satisfying the sweet tooth at the same time! To summarise, wholesome, satisfying, healthy!!!
Ahh I am so glad you loved it!
Delicious! I used 1/3 red onion instead of 1/2. Absolutely delicious. Thank you for sharing!
I love it!! 😍 So easy and delicious!
My husband is not easily impressed and doesn’t get enthusiastic quickly. And yet his reaction to this salad was “oh! this is my new favorite salad!!” I added some chickpeas to bulk it out a little and I had only pecans on hand that I panroasted before adding. Many thanks from Brussels, Belgium, johanna
I’m so glad you both loved it!
