SERVES 4
PERPARATION TIME: 25 minutes
40 oz (115g) strawberries, rinsed, dried and hulled
2 level tablespoons low-fat natural yoghurt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 large orange, peel and pith remove, segments freed of membranes and cut into small pieces.
3 oz (85g) cucumber, diced
Seeds from 4 green cardamom pods, crushed
1 tablespoon raspberry vinegar
2 ripe avocados
Curly endive, lamb’s lettuce, watercress and mint springs to garnish.
- Blend the strawberries and yoghurt in a food processor, or pass the fruit through a nylon sieve and whisk into the yoghurt. Season with pepper
- Mix the orange, cucumber, crushed cardamom and vinegar
- Halve the avocados and remove the stones. Arrange the halves on serving plates and surround with the endive, lamb’s lettuce and watercress. Fill the avocados with the orange mixture. Spoon on a little of the strawberry dressing and garnish with the mint sprigs. Serve the rest of the dressing separately.
Fresh orange and cool cucumber, spiked with cardamom and raspberry vinegar, are bathed in a smooth strawberry dressing to make an unusual filling for butter y avocado.
Its looks very delicious, I must try this at home. And the best thing about the recipe is telling calories and etc… for diet conscious people.
