Radish Salad With Creamy Avocado Dressing
serves 2-4
Bright red radishes and creamy green avocados make a pretty plate, and a delicately-flavored dish.
2 pounds radishes, thinly sliced
1/2 ripe avocado
1 lime, juiced
salt and pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons sour cream (or crème fraîche)
prep: 15 minutes
total: 20 minutes
large bowl
blender (or food processor)
1. To prep the radishes, cover them with cold water. Rub them clean in a couple of changes of water, then dry them with a kitchen towel. Cut off the stem and root ends, and cut them into 1/4 inch slices. Put the slices in a large bowl.
2. Scoop out the avocado's flesh into the blender. Add the lime juice, a light sprinkling of salt and pepper, and a pinch of cayenne. Add the sour cream and purée until smooth.
3. Add a little dressing at a time until the radishes are coated but not sogged down with dressing. There should be a good balance between the radishes and the dressing.
