Orange-rocket salad

One of he favorites right now in Camillo’s Kitchen is a colorful and tasteful salad with oranges – at this time you can find really tasteful oranges around in the shops. If you are very lucky you find Sicilian oranges, both the yellow ones and blood oranges.

For 3-4 people use 4-5 oranges, cut of the peel and slice the oranges, save all the juices for the dressing. Roast a little handful of almonds on a dry pan, let them cool and cut them roughly. Take a little handful of dates and slice them, find a red chilli, slice this too. Wash a couple of handfuls of rocket, dry it carefully and mix it with a splash of your best extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of salt flakes. Use the juice of an extra orange for dressing, mix the juice with extra virgin olive oil, again a good splash.

Place the oranges on a big plate, top with the rocket, chilli, dates and almonds, spread the dressing over the salad – let it rest for 15 minutes if you can – serve and ENJOY!
