    Recipe Introduction


    This is typical of the light lunch fare preferred in Hillaryland, as first lady Hillary Clinton's inner circle was known.

    List of Ingredients




    Orange, Jicama & Red Onion Salad with Ci

    1/3 cup olive oil
    1/3 cup orange juice
    1/4 cup sherry vinegar
    1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
    1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    Hot sauce
    Salt and freshly ground black pepper
    4 large, seedless navel oranges
    1 cup thinly sliced red onion
    1 cup julienned peeled jicama
    1 tablespoon finely diced seeded jalapeno pepper
    1 cup loosely packed arugula leaves or baby spinach leaves

    Serves 4

    In a small bowl, stir together the oil, orange juice, vinegar, 1/4 cup of the cilantro, cumin, coriander and cinnamon until well incorporated. Season to taste with a few dashes of hot sauce, salt and pepper.

    Peel the oranges and cut crosswise into 3/8-inch-thick slices.

    In a large bowl, combine the onion, jicama, remaining 1/4 cup cilantro, jalapeno and arugula. Drizzle with the dressing and toss gently but thoroughly.

    To serve, divide the orange slices among four salad plates, arranging them in a single layer. Top each portion with some salad and serve. For a buffet, replicate the presentation on a single, large platter, or put the oranges and salad in a bowl and toss together gently.
