1 lb (1/2 kg) broccoli
1 large orange
3 Tbsp (45 mL) almond oil (or hazelnut oil)
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 Tbsp (15 mL) chopped ginger
2 Tbsp (30 mL) honey
2 Tbsp (30 mL) almond flakes

Wash broccoli; blanch for one minute in boiling salt water (1/2 tablespoon or 2 mL salt). Chill immediately in ice water to get a nice green color. Meanwhile zest and skin the orange; separate into segments. Squeeze lemon juice in a bowl and add chopped ginger, honey, lemon juice and almond oil. Mix well. Toss orange and broccoli; place on a plate and pour some dressing on top of the salad. Garnish with roasted almond. For more color add pink peppercorn.
