Avocado salad

Avocado salad is a great side dish and so far I have never had any guests tell me that they did not like this dish. It is easy to prepare and most of the ingredients will be in you kitchen cupboard.

Make sure the avocado is nicely ripe. Then you will have the best taste. Use a good quality oil since you are making a salad.

Ingredients:

2 avocados
3 small onions (shallots)
1 clove of garlic finely cut
3 tbls peanuts
7 tomatoes
1 lime (optional)
3 tbls of oil
A pinch of salt
Coriander for garnish

Preparation

1. Pound the peanuts to powder using a mortar and pestle.

2. Cut garlic, onion, tomato, and avocado.

3. Fry garlic to a golden colour.

4. Put all ingredients into a bowl. Mix. Garnish with coriander and lime*.

* Lime looks nice as garnish and the people who like the taste a little more sour can use the lime to add a little juice to their salad.
