Popcorn salad and slow cooked beef
I tried this trendy salad this weekend. Although the popcorn didn't add much it is a fresh salad I will make during the summer. I had the salad with beef slowly cooked in the oven but I guess it works with any barbequed meat or chicken.
Popcorn salad
50 g unpopped popcorn
1 dl mayonaise
0,5 dl sour cream

In a small bowl mix mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, sugar and mustard to a dressing. Add salt and pepper and olive oil. Pour over the salad and mix. Finally add the popcorn just before serving.
