Warm durra salad

with red cabbage, orange and feta cheese

4 servings

Durra grains have a mild flavour and are an excellent substitute for rice, pasta, bulgur and couscous. It's handy to cook larger batches of durra and freeze them in meal-sized portions to simplify everyday cooking. In this salad, the durra is combined warm with red cabbage, orange and feta cheese – a delicious mix that works perfectly both as a main dish and as a side, for example with chicken.

Durra

  • 2 dl da Carla organic Durra grains
  • 5 dl water
  • 1 vegetable stock cube, free from traces of gluten

Salad

Dressing

Here's how

  • Bring water and stock to the boil in a saucepan, lower the heat and add the durra grains. Cook according to the instructions on the packet.

  • Cut away the peel from the oranges and slice them thinly. Squeeze a few orange slices to get 1 msk juice for the dressing.
