Rocket Bocconcini and Avocado Salad with Anchovy Dressing

Posted 2016-01-13 by finyfollow

Salads are a good way to use your imagination in cooking, and as I love cheese and often put cheese into a salad, this time I decided to use [link http://reviewclue.com.au/la-casa-baby-bocconcini/ Bocconcini].

Bocconcini is a form of Mozzarella and although slightly chewy, it gives a nice texture to many salads, and also looks attractive.

I put the salad on individual plates and added a juicy, sweet nectarine to each plate.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 0 minutes
Makes: 2 - 3 servings

Ingredients
120 g small grape tomatoes, halved
50 g rocket leaves
1 small avocado, chopped
½ large shallot (or small onion), sliced
100 g baby Bocconcini
1 tbsp pine nuts or sunflower seeds

For the dressing
1½ tbsp mayonnaise
¾ tbsp lemon juice
¾ tbsp water
3 anchovy fillets
½ clove garlic, crushed

Method

  • Chop the anchovies finely.
  • Chop them so they are small pieces


  • Mix all the salad dressing together in a screw top jar, and shake to combine.

  • Coat the avocado in a bit of extra lemon and then drain off any excess.

  • Put all salad ingredients in a bowl - apart from the Bocconcini.


  • Toss gently, and add the Bocconcini.


  • Add the salad dressing and gently mix.
  • Add a small slice of lemon for contrast colour if putting the whole bowl on the table


  • Can also be served as an entre.
