Vigorously sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt over the grated red cabbage using a wooden pounder or a bottle if no pounder is available.
Mix the leek rings, orange quarters, ground fennel, fresh pepper, 2 tablespoons of oil, vinegar and orange juice together well. Add the can of pineapple with juice.
Nuts, roasted dry, cool and then mix with 2 tablespoons of oil and parsley and sprinkle over the salad.
The salad tastes even better when it has steeped for at least 12 hours.
