Strawberry, avocado & sweet chilli bean salad

Postby skoptic » Wed Aug 17, 2011 4:04 pm

This might be completely nicked from somewhere else, but I've been living off it for weeks ;) I would add a photo, but I've eaten it all (again)....

210g garlic and herb flatbread
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
pinch of caster sugar
150g strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 ripe avocado, stoned, peeled and diced
8 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
1 small shallot, finely sliced
½ x 400g can cannellini beans, drained
50g packet rocket leaves

Stage 1
Using a 4 x 4.5cm heart-shape cutter, cut out about 20 croutons from the flatbread. Heat half the olive oil in a large frying pan until hot, then fry the croutons for about 5-6 minutes, turning occasionally until golden. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper and drain. Keep warm.

Stage 2
Stir the remaining olive oil, vinegar, chilli sauce, sugar and shallots into any pan juices and set aside.

Stage 3
Toss together the croutons, strawberries, cannellini beans, avocado and rocket leaves and arrange on 2 plates. Drizzle over the dressing and serve immediately.

Get on .. every omni who has come to my house in the last 3 weeks has been fed this, and loved it.
