Preparation
Step 1
Shred or very thinly slice brussel sprouts using a food processor (grater attachment) or mandolin. ( Feel Free to purchase pre-shredded brussels sprouts, or broccoli slaw or a slaw mix.
Step 2
Place in a large bowl drizzle with oil, sprinkle with the garlic, salt and lemon zest. Massage with your fingers until tender, about 3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the onion, tahini dressing, starting conservatively, tossing well and adding more to desired creaminess. (I admitt I like this quite heavy with dressing) Taste, and add more salt and lemon juice to taste. Toss in pistachios and fresh parsley and sprinkle with sumac.
Step 4
Garnish with a sprinkling of sunflower sprouts, aleppo chili flakes, zaatar spice or even Dukkah Seasoning and some sliced avocado – all optional!
