Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams smoked salmon
- 120 grams mixed salad greens
- 1 medium cucumber
- 150 grams cherry tomatoes
- 1 small red onion
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 tablespoons capers
- 1 lemon
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Start by preparing the vegetables. Wash and dry the mixed salad greens. Thinly slice the cucumber into rounds or half-moons. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Peel and thinly slice the red onion.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and slice it into thin wedges or chunks.
On a large salad platter or individual serving plates, layer the mixed salad greens as the base. Arrange the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, and avocado on top.
Tear the smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces and distribute it evenly over the salad.
Sprinkle the capers and freshly chopped dill over the top for added flavor and garnish.
In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of one lemon, olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until well-combined to make the dressing.
Drizzle the dressing evenly over the salad. You can serve the dressing on the side if preferred.
Lightly toss the salad if desired, or leave it as a composed salad for a more elegant presentation. Serve immediately and enjoy!
