Ingredients
  

  • 2 large ripe avocados, pitted and sliced into wedges or chunks
  • 1 bunch (about 8-10) fresh radishes, thinly sliced into rounds
  • 1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Juice of 1 whole lime
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly cracked

Method
 

  1. Wash the radishes thoroughly and remove the tops and tails. Slice them into very thin rounds using a sharp knife or a mandoline.
  2. Prepare the avocados by cutting them in half and removing the pits. Slice the flesh into bite-sized pieces and set them aside.
  3. Place the radish slices and avocado chunks into a large glass mixing bowl. Add the thinly sliced red onion to the bowl as well.
  4. In a separate small jar, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lime juice, salt, and black pepper.
  5. Pour the dressing over the vegetables gently. Use a large spoon or your clean hands to toss the salad carefully.
  6. Sprinkle the freshly chopped cilantro over the top right before serving. Adjust the salt or lime juice if necessary.
  7. Serve immediately while the colors are bright and the textures are crisp.

Notes

Use a mandoline for uniform radish slices. Dress the salad just before serving to maintain freshness. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
