Salad with avocado and red fish

Avocado, fish, cherry and arugula under a fragrant dressing. I made a salad with red fish for my husband's birthday. This has been our tradition for 10 years. This is a mandatory part of congratulations. Usually I cook our favorite "Dandelion" (the recipe is in my cookbook), but sometimes I find interesting recipes that I also want to implement. This time the choice fell on this salad. Although "Dandelion" I also have to cook.

    Step 1.

    How to make a salad with avocado and red fish? Prepare the ingredients. To prepare a salad with avocado and red fish, we will need: a piece of any lightly salted red fish (salmon, trout, pink salmon, sockeye salmon, etc.), cherry tomatoes, avocado, arugula, ground black pepper and salt.

    Step 4.

    Cut the red fish into thin slices. For the convenience of slicing, you can pre-put the fish in the freezer. Literally for 20-30 minutes. Then the fish can be easily cut into the thinnest slices, and after slicing it will thaw quickly.

    Salt the salad, sprinkle with freshly ground pepper. Pour over the dressing and serve. Bon appetit!

The salad turns out to be very beautiful - what you need for a festive table.

In addition to lightly salted red fish, you can take smoked.

Interestingly, in the presence of a fairly high-calorie fish, all the other ingredients practically do not contain carbohydrates. Therefore, the taste and calories in this salad are perfectly balanced. The salad does not seem dense and very fatty, but due to the red fish it is quite satisfying.

Salad can be served the way I have - on a platter, or you can put everything in layers, forming portions in a culinary ring: avocado, red cherry fish - arugula. Pour the dressing on top.

Choose juicy tomatoes, but dense. Soft fruits do not keep their shape well, in the process of slicing and cooking they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish.
