  1. As you can see, there are few ingredients. Start by steaming the vegetables (or in water) for 5 minutes. I cooked a lot of different vegetables for the whole family.
  2. Now let’s get to the gas station. Remove the zest from one orange.
  3. True Italians stir the filling necessarily in a jar with a lid or any other tightly closed vessel. Let’s follow their example. Put the zest in a small jar. Squeeze the juice from an orange with an intact peel. We also send it in a jar.
  4. Then add olive oil to the filling, about three times less than the juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Now cover the jar and shake it vigorously several times, you will get a delicate orange-cream sauce. All Italian websites write that such an effect can be achieved only by mixing the filling ingredients in a tightly closed container.
  5. Now, actually, about the salad itself. Peel the orange that has been left without a peel with a knife and cut into thin slices. Looking ahead, I will say that large pieces look more beautiful, but I would recommend cutting orange slices into 4 parts and finely chop two types of cabbage. Then the ingredients will be mixed together.
  6. We put oranges on a plate, then two types of cabbage. There are still two ingredients in the salad, which, considering that this is a light dinner, I did not add – these are chili and capers. If you want to repeat exactly the preparation of the salad: add finely chopped chili pepper to the dressing before shaking; sprinkle the finished salad with capers. So, the final stage: generously pour the dressing over everything. I also put some vegetables on top. A very, very tasty dressing, ideal for salads!!! Pricking an orange slice and small pieces of two types of cabbage on a fork, dipping it all into the dressing, I experienced the height of pleasure.
