Red Onion and Orange Salad

 
   
   
   
Ingredients -  
   
4 Ripe Medium Oranges, peeled
1 small Red Onion, sliced fine
2 tablespoons Raspberry Vinegar
6 tablespoons Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
Salt and Fresh Ground Black Pepper
4 tablespoons Golden Raisins, covered for 20 minutes in hot water, then drained
20 black Olives, pitted
2 tablespoons Sunflower Seeds
2 tablespoons Almonds, blanched and chopped fine
sprigs of Fresh Mint, to garnish

Remove the white pith from the oranges and cut the fruit crosswise into 1/4 inch slices. Arrange on a serving platter and scatter over the sliced red onion.

In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spoon this dressing over the onion and oranges.

Sprinkle with the raisins, olives, sunflower seeds, and almonds.
