Avocado Roasted Broccoli Sesame Rice Salad Recipes

AVOCADO, ROASTED BROCCOLI & SESAME RICE SALAD

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the broccoli onto a baking sheet along with the red onion and 1 tbsp of the sesame oil. Roast for 20 mins or until the broccoli is tender. Leave to cool a little.
• Whisk the remaining sesame oil, soy, rice wine vinegar and honey in a small bowl. Toss the broccoli, rice, onion and dressing together in a large bowl, then gently mix in the avocado and coriander. Divide between bowls and top with the sesame seeds and chilli.

SESAME CUCUMBER AND AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• Make the dressing: Place the sesame oil, rice vinegar, sesame seeds, sugar, soy sauce and red-pepper flakes into a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of water and whisk until emulsified. Taste, and adjust seasonings. (Dressing should taste acidic, a little sweet and salty.)
• When you're ready to eat, prepare the salad: Halve the avocados and discard the pits. Using a small paring knife, carefully score the avocado flesh into 1/2-inch cubes, avoiding cutting through the skin. Use a large spoon to scoop out the avocado flesh (in one spoonful, if possible), as close to the skin as possible. Transfer avocado cubes to a large bowl and add the dressing; toss gently.
• Add the cucumbers and scallions and toss everything together. Season with salt and black pepper, top with more sesame seeds, and serve immediately.

BROCCOLI SALAD WITH GARLIC AND SESAME

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the vinegar and salt. Add broccoli and toss to combine.
• In a large skillet, heat olive oil until hot, but not smoking. Add garlic and cumin and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in sesame oil and pepper flakes. Pour mixture over broccoli and toss well. Let sit for at least 1 hour at room temperature, and up to 48 (chill it if you want to keep it for more than 2 hours). Adjust seasonings (it may need more salt) and serve.
