132. Low-calorie salad with avocado (Thai recipe)

Not long ago I shared with my readers the recipe for ginger lemonade, which quenches thirst beautifully on a hot day. Time to add to the collection of summer dishes a very simple, low-calorie recipe for a Thai salad with avocado that will take you no more than ten minutes to make. Details and photos are under the cut.

Cooking time ≈ 10 minutes.
Ingredients:

• avocado
• cucumber
• tomato
• shallot
• spring onion and coriander — to taste
• 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp vegetable oil
• 1 tbsp fish sauce
• a clove of garlic
• 1 lime

Peel the cucumber and cut it into rounds.

Cut the tomato into 8 pieces.

Cut the avocado in half, remove the stone, peel it, cut it into slices and sprinkle it with lime juice.

Cut the onion into feathers and chop the coriander. Add them to the tomatoes, cucumbers and avocado. For the dressing, put the garlic through a press; mix it with the grated ginger, sugar, vegetable oil, fish sauce and the rest of the lime juice. Put all the vegetables except the spring onion into a salad bowl, pour the dressing over them and stir.

Leave to stand for 3 minutes. Decorate with spring onion and serve.

Bon appétit!
