German/Bavarian Chopped Green Salad Mit Borretsch image

From tastygermanrecipe.com. Fresh parsley, dill or chives can replace borage if it is unavailable. I wasn't sure what type of onion to use in the salad as it wasn't specified but for color I chose red. If it's another type of onion, kindly let me know and the recipe will be updated. Thanks! May I remind you?: Fresh ingredients-the best you can get.

Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 head lettuce (I used butter lettuce mixed with red loose leaf lettuce however any heirloom lettuce would be ideal)
1 cup watercress (rocket) or 1 cup arugula (rocket)
1 small red onion, diced
8 -10 small red radishes
3 tablespoons fresh borage leaves, chopped (and a few borage flowers if available)
freshly grated black pepper
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons oil (I used walnut)

Steps:

  • Wash the lettuce and watercress well and spin dry.
  • Prepare the dressing in a non-reactive container and set aside. Best prepared at least 1 hour in advance.
  • Combine the salad ingredients together in a large salad bowl with the dressing. Toss to coat.
  • Garnish with additional borage leaves and flowers.
  • fyi: A sprinkle of freshly grated black pepper tasted really good on the salad.
