Sumac Veal Schnitzel with Cauliflower Salad

There's no denying that we all love a good schnitzel. In this version, we've given the humble schnitzel the Middle Eastern treatment with the addition of sour Sumac in the schnitzel crumb.

English

Serves 2

Ingredients
600g cauliflower
2 tablespoons tahini
1 lemon
2 veal schnitzels of 150 g each
1 container sumac
50g rocket
40g almonds
40g raisins
50g panko
10 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper

Method
Preheat the oven to 200° C. Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them together with the almonds in a roasting dish with 2-3 tablespoons olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 25 minutes, stirring now and again.

In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons tahini, 2 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice to taste and 6 tablespoons lukewarm water. Season with salt and pepper. This is the dressing.

Rub the schnitzels in with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix the panko and sumac together in a bowl. Run the schnitzels through the panko mixture, pressing the crumbs well on to the meat. Heat a frying pan with 3 tablespoons olive oil and fry the schnitzels until golden on each side. Remove the cauliflower from the oven.

Add the raisins and rocket to the cauliflower. Divide the schnitzels and salad between 2 plates, drizzling the tahini dressing over the salad.

Ingrediënten
600g bloemkool
2 eetlepels tahini
1 citroen
2 kalfsschnitzels a 150g per stuk
2 eetlepels sumac
50g rucola
40g amandelen
40g rozijnen
50g panko
10 eetlepels olijfolie
zout en peper

Bereiding
Warm de oven voor op 200°C. Snijd de bloemkool in roosjes, doe ze samen met de amandelen in een ovenschaal met 2-3 eetlepels olijfolie, zout en peper. Zet in de oven voor 25 minuten en roer af en toe om.

Meng in een kommetje 2 eetlepels tahini pasta met 2 eetlepels olijfolie en 6 eetlepels lauwwarm water. Voeg citroensap, zout en peper toe naar smaak. Dit wordt de dressing.

Wrijf de schnitzels in met olie, zout en peper. Mix in een kom de panko en sumac goed door elkaar. Haal de schnitzels door het pankomengsel.

Verwarm een koekenpan met 3 eetlepels olijfolie en bak de schnitzels aan beide kanten goudbruin. Haal de bloemkool uit de oven en meng de rozijnen er doorheen. Zet 2-3 minuten terug in de oven om de rozijnen licht te verwarmen.

Meng de rucola door de bloemkool. Leg op elk bord een schnitzel en verdeel de bloemkoolsalade over de 2 borden. Lepel de tahini dressing over de salade en serveer.

Dress the lamb’s lettuce with 2 tablespoon olive oil and a few drops of balsamic vinegar. Serve the schnitzels with the salad, the fried potatoes and a wedge of lemon.
