Warm sorghum salad

with red cabbage, orange and feta

4 servings

Sorghum grains have a mild flavour and make an excellent substitute for rice, pasta, bulgur and couscous. It's handy to cook a larger batch of sorghum and freeze it in meal-sized portions to simplify everyday cooking. In this salad, the warm sorghum is combined with red cabbage, orange and feta – a delightful mix that works beautifully both as a dish on its own or as a side, for example with chicken.
