Avocado & Prawn Salad with Lime Coriander Dressing
Ingredients
- 300 - 500g cooked peeled prawns (I've used the ones with their tails still on)
- 2 firm but ripe avocados, peeled & sliced
- 1 punnet cherry tomatoes, halved (about 2 cups)
- 1 handful blanched, topped & tailed green beans
- 2 handfuls mixed salad leaves or mesclun
- 1 handful roughly chopped or sprigged parsley
For the dressing:
- 2 tablespoons lite olive or canola oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped coriander
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 1 tablespoon Asian fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon soft brown sugar
- 1 - 2 cloves garlic, crushed (½ teaspoon)
Method
Mix all dressing ingredients in a screw-top jar or mini blender.
Mix the salad ingredients on a large flat platter or shallow bowl. Keep cold in the fridge under a damp tea towel until ready to serve. Either drizzle the dressing over the salad or pass it around separately.
