Celery Salad
An easy side dish for fish or other seafood
What you will need
4 stalks celery
2 sprig parsley
salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 a lemon
How to cook
1
Wash the celery and peel the outer ridges. Celery has these veins that run along the outside. They kinda ruin the texture, particularly for thinly sliced celery.
2
I used a mandolin slicer. Cut the celery into shorter lengths so you can group them together for slicing. Adjust the mandolin to somewhere around a millimeter, nice and thin.
3
By grouping opposite leaves, you can speed up your herb picking significantly.
4
Combine celery and parsley in a small bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper. In this case, I had some celery leaves that i included as well.
5
Add a short pour of olive oil. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon into the salad as well.
6
Mix the salad gently and adjust seasoning to your preferences. This is a nice, light little salad that goes really well with seafood.
