Spicy Moroccan Bread Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In a large bowl, combine 1/4 cup olive oil, the garlic, and the cumin.
• Add the bread and toss.
• Scatter the bread onto a baking sheet and bake, tossing occasionally, if necessary, until toasted.
• In the same bowl, mix the celery, chickpeas, jarlsberg, almonds, vinegar, and the remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil.
• Add the bread and toss. Let stand for 1 hour.
• Season with salt and pepper if you want.
• Tip: something I haven't tried is toasting the bread in the toaster first and then dipping.

Steps:

• Peel carrots and dice them; place in a large saucepan and cover with salted water.
• Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until crisp-tender, about 10 minutes; drain and leave in colander to dry out.
• Heat oil in a large skillet, over medium heat, and cook onion until softened and it begins to brown, about 12 minutes; add the cooked carrots, sugar, garlic, chile, green onion, cloves, ground ginger, coriander, cinnamon, paprika, cumin, vinegar, and preserved lemon (basically everything except the salt, cilantro, and yogurt).
• Remove from heat and season liberally with salt, stir well, and let cool.
• Before serving, stir in the cilantro, taste and adjust seasonings accordingly.
• Serve in individual bowls with a dollop of yogurt, drizzle of oil, and a sprinkling of extra cilantro.

Steps:

• Combine bread, tomatoes and basil in large bowl.
• In food processor with metal blade, chop garlic and salt. Add rosemary, hot pepper flakes and vinegar.
• Add olive oil in a stream to emulsify.
• Toss bread mixture and dressing.
• Allow to stand for at least 20 minutes so the bread can absorb the dressing.

Steps:

• Wash and peel vegetables. Cut them into small dices then combine in a salad bowl.
• For the dressing, mix together oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad, mix well.
• Garnish with diced black olives.

Steps:

• Peel the oranges, paring away all the exterior white pulp. Cut each orange into 8 wedges. Cut each wedge into 1-inch pieces. Set aside.
• Place the cayenne, paprika, garlic, olive oil and vinegar in a salad bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste and whisk to combine. Add the oranges, parsley and olives. Toss gently to blend. Serve cold or at room temperature.
