Calories 206kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 small red onion thinly sliced
  • 1 1⁄2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 1⁄2 large fennel bulbs trimmed
  • 4 1⁄2 cups thinly sliced red cabbage
  • 1 large carrot peeled and grated or cut into matchsticks
  • 2 tablespoons finely minced flat-leaf parsley
  • 2 tablespoons finely minced fresh dill
  • 4 1⁄2 tablespoons finely grated fresh horseradish root or 3 tablespoons prepared horseradish
  • 3 tablespoons champagne vinegar
  • 1⁄3 cup good-quality extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, toss the onion with the lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  • Remove the tough outer layer of the fennel bulbs. Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, thinly slice the bulbs crosswise.
  • Add the fennel, cabbage, carrot, parsley, and dill to the bowl of marinated onion. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and lightly massage the mixture with your hands for about a minute to wilt the cabbage a bit. Let the slaw rest for 15 minutes, discarding any liquid that collects in the bowl.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the horseradish and vinegar, then whisk in the olive oil. Toss the slaw with the vinaigrette and the mayonnaise and serve.

Gluten-Free Roasted Carrots with Lemon Tahini Sauce Recipe

For visual flair, use young carrots with an inch of their greens still attached. 
Prep Time 20 minutes
Servings 4
Author Ben Mastracco

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds carrots ends trimmed
  • 3-1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil divided
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint optional
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 375°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the carrots in one layer, then brush them with 1-1/2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Roast until tender when pierced with a knife, 35 to 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the tahini, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Whisk with a fork until the sauce is the consistency of extra thick yogurt, adding 1 to 3 tablespoons of water, to thin, if needed.
  • Transfer the carrots to a platter. Drizzle half the tahini sauce over the carrots, then garnish with the smoked paprika, fresh mint, and lemon zest. Serve with the remaining tahini sauce on the side.

Roasted Beets with Coconut Milk, Curry Leaves, and Indian Spices Gluten-Free Recipe

Servings 8

Ingredients

  • 12 medium red beets, rinsed and ends trimmed
  • 4 medium gold beets, rinsed and ends trimmed
  • 4 tablespoons canola oil
  • 15 curry leaves
  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced
  • 1 serrano chile, seeded and thinly sliced
  • 1 (13.5-ounce) can coconut milk
  • 6 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon nigella seeds (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds
  • 1 teaspoon black mustard seeds
  • 1/2 bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the beets in a large baking dish, cover tightly with foil, and roast until the beets are easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour. Let cool.
  • In a sauté pan over medium heat, warm 2 tablespoons of the oil and sauté the curry leaves, shallot, and chile, stirring occasionally, until the curry leaves are crispy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the coconut milk, bring to a simmer, then cook until reduced by one-quarter, about 10 minutes. Add 4 tablespoons of the vinegar and season with salt. Let cool.
  • Keeping the red and gold beets separate, peel and cut them into 1-inch pieces.
  • Put 4 teaspoons of the vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the red beets in a large mixing bowl and toss.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, add the remaining 2 teaspoons vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the gold beets and toss. Let macerate for 30 minutes.
  • Add two-thirds of the coconut milk marinade to the red beets and toss. Add the remaining marinade to the gold beets and toss. Let both marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  • In a small pot, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and the cumin, nigella, and yellow and black mustard seeds and cook over low heat until the cumin is lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
  • To serve, place the red beets on a platter and top with the gold beets. Spoon the seed mixture over the beets and garnish with the cilantro.

Indian-Spiced Cauliflower, Potatoes, and Peas

Slow cooking potatoes and cauliflower in vibrantly flavored spices allows the veggies to develop complex flavor, soft texture, and a lightly crisp crust, all of which catapults this effortless dish into our recipe hall of fame.
Servings 6 people

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 3⁄4 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil or vegetable oil
  • 1- inch piece fresh ginger peeled and minced
  • 1 serrano chile seeded and minced
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 head cauliflower cored and cut into 1-inch florets
  • 12 ounces red potatoes cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1⁄2 cup frozen peas thawed
  • Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, stir together the cumin, turmeric, paprika, and salt.
  • In a large sauté pan with a lid or a Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Stir in the ginger and serrano and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the garlic and the spice mixture and stir until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Add the cauliflower and potatoes and stir to coat everything with the spices. Pour in 3⁄4 cup water while stirring. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 25 minutes, checking the pan once or twice to be sure the liquid is bubbling, not steaming. (If the pan becomes dry, add 1⁄4 cup water.)
  • Remove from the heat, stir in the peas, cover, and let stand 5 minutes until the peas are hot and most of the liquid in the pan has been absorbed. If liquid remains, stir the vegetables lightly over medium heat until it’s absorbed. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
