Potato and smoked salmon salad with creamy avocado dressing
Serves 4
Delicate slices of smoked salmon combined with chunks of potato and crisp mixed salad greens, and drizzled with a deliciously creamy avocado dressing.
1 lb (450g) potatoes — peeled and cut into bite-size cubes
1 avocado — peeled and roughly chopped
1 clove garlic — minced
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
⅓ cup water
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 cups mixed salad leaves
7 oz (200g) sliced cold smoked salmon
¼ red onion — thinly sliced
BOIL the potatoes for 10 minutes then rinse under cold water and drain thoroughly. PLACE the avocado, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, water, salt and pepper in a blender and process until smooth and pourable (start with ⅓ cup water and add more water if needed to reach a pourable consistency). ARRANGE the salad leaves on the bottom of a large serving plate, top with the cooked potatoes, sliced smoked salmon and red onion. DRIZZLE the avocado dressing over the salad.
