Clementine, Olive, and Endive Salad

This clementine, olive and endive salad is a sophisticated vegan dish that perfectly balances contrasting flavours. The natural bitterness of the Belgian endive provides a crisp foundation for the sweet, juicy citrus segments and the sharp, vinegary punch of shop-bought cocktail onions. Brine-cured Kalamata olives add a satisfyingly savoury depth, while a generous handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley brings a herbaceous brightness to every mouthful.

Ideal as a refreshing winter starter or a light side dish for a festive lunch, this salad is as visually striking as it is delicious. The simple red-wine vinegar and extra-virgin olive oil dressing ties the bold components together without overpowering the delicate leaves. It is a fantastic choice for those seeking a healthy, seasonal recipe that feels elegant yet remains wonderfully simple to prepare.

Ingredients for Clementine, Olive, and Endive Salad

  • 2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar

  • 1 teaspoon sugar, or to taste

  • 1/2 teaspoons salt, or to taste

  • 60ml extra-virgin olive oil

  • 800g clementines (7 to 11)

  • 900g Belgian endives (6 to 8)

  • 4 pale inner ribs of celery, including leaves

  • 1/2 cup Kalamata or other brine-cured black olives, pitted and cut lengthwise into slivers

  • 160g drained cocktail (pickled) onions (140g), quartered

  • 3/4 cup loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

How to make Clementine, Olive, and Endive Salad

Whisk together vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl until sugar and salt are dissolved, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified. Season with pepper.

Cut off tops and bottoms from clementines to expose fruit, then, resting fruit on a cutting board, remove peel, including all white pith, by cutting off vertical strips with a sharp paring knife. Cut segments free from inner membranes.

Halve endives lengthwise, then cut out and discard cores. Cut endives diagonally into 1/2-inch-wide strips and put in a large salad bowl.

Separate celery leaves from ribs and cut ribs diagonally into very thin slices, then add leaves and ribs to endives along with olives, onions, parsley, and clementine segments. Whisk dressing, then gently toss salad with enough dressing to coat.
