Salmon, Avocado & Rocket Salad with a Wasabi Dressing

July 07

Some of the most vibrant food to prepare can be the simplest and my highly impressive summer salad of salmon sashimi, creamy avocado, rocket, coriander and toasted sesame seeds is a perfect example. The whole salad is brought together with a pale green dressing humming with heat from wasabi paste, a Japanese staple ingredient made from Japanese horseradish, often used as a garnish served with sushi.  It makes for an incredibly light and bright salad and makes an ideal treat if you’re dining solo as it is simple to prepare.
