Roasted Hazelnut Vinaigrette

The hazelnut syrup used in this recipe is available in most supermarkets.
If you do not have lemon oil, prepare the lemon oil by mixing 3 tablespoons of olive oil with 3 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice.
Serves 8
Ingredients
½ cup hazelnuts
¼ cup hazelnut syrup
3 tbsp honey
½ cup apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp lemon oil
¼ cup lemon oil
½ cup olive oil
Method
Add the hazelnuts and 2 tablespoons of lemon oil to a small bowl. Toss the hazelnuts in the oil until the nuts are coated. Place the nuts on a baking sheet pan and roast in a 350° F oven for 10 minutes. Remove the nuts from the oven and cool completely. Once cool, grind the nuts in a food processor until they are a very fine texture. Add the ground hazelnuts, hazelnut syrup, honey, apple cider vinegar, the remaining lemon oil and olive oil to a blender and cover. Blend until the ingredients are well incorporated. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Stir well before serving.

Plate Assembly
Place the greens on a chilled platter. Toss the rice preparation and place it in the center of the greens. Drizzle vinaigrette over the rice and greens. Refrigerate any unused vinaigrette for later use. Garnish with the slivered almonds.
