For the salad
- 1 Cos / romaine lettuce heart {approximately 150 grams}
- 2 small cucumbers {approximately 300 grams}
- 1 red bullhorn capsicum / pepper {approximately 150 grams}
- 1 avocado {approximately 300 grams}
- 3 tbsps lemon or lime juice {to squeeze on the avocado}
For the dressing*
- 3-4 ripe passion fruit {to make up ¼ cup}
- ¼ cup avocado oil
- 3 tbsps lime juice
- 2 Kaffir lime leaves {optional but adds so much flavour}
Wash, trim and peel all your veg and remove the seeds from your capsicum (pepper).
Shred your lettuce, slice the cucumbers and pepper into rounds and cut the avocado in chunks with a squeeze of lemon juice to prevent browning. Put everything in a mixing bowl.
Cut your lime leaves into chiffonade and add to a glass jar with the rest of your dressing ingredients, season and shake until emulsified. Pour your dressing over the vegetables in your bowl, season with sea salt and cracked black pepper.
Taste and adjust seasonings according to your taste.
Arrange in a salad bowl and serve immediately.
