Cucumber Avocado And Beet Salad Recipes

AVOCADO, BEET, PEA AND CUCUMBER SALAD

Steps:

• Cover and bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath. Add peas, and cook, uncovered, until tender but still bright green, about 3 minutes. Remove peas, drain, and then plunge peas into ice water to stop cooking. Drain well. Add beets to boiling water, and cook until tender, about 40 minutes. Remove from heat, drain, and then plunge beets into ice water to stop cooking. Drain well. Peel beets, and cut into 1/8-inch pieces. Transfer to a large bowl.
• In a deep container, combine chives and vinegar using an immersion blender. Add oil in a slow, steady stream, and blend until emulsified (alternately, the vinaigrette can be made in a regular blender). Season with salt and pepper. Strain mixture through a fine sieve.
• In a medium bowl, combine peas and cucumbers. Add 1/4 cup chive oil, and mix to combine. Gently toss in avocados.
• To serve, place a 9-inch ring mold on a platter. Fill with the beet mixture. Top with pea mixture, spreading evenly. Drizzle with a little of the remaining chive oil (reserve any extra for another use). Top with horseradish cream. Remove ring mold, and serve.

CUCUMBER-AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• Transfer the scallions to a small bowl of ice water to crisp.
• Peel the cucumbers in alternating stripes, trim ends and cut cucumbers lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds, if desired. Cut cucumbers into bite-size pieces (thin slices, 1/2-inch cubes, or smashed into irregular shapes), then transfer to a colander set in the sink. Toss with 1 teaspoon salt and set aside to drain, at least 5 minutes or up to 15.
• When you're ready to eat, halve the avocados and remove the pits. Using a spoon, remove the flesh from the skins, then cut the flesh into 1/2-inch cubes. Transfer to a large bowl, add the lemon juice and season with salt. Stir to combine.
• Shake the cucumbers in the colander to get rid of any excess moisture, then transfer to the bowl with the avocado. Drain and shake the scallions in the colander. Add the scallions to the bowl.
• Stir the salad ingredients vigorously just until the avocado breaks down a bit. The cucumbers should be glossed with avocado but the majority of the avocado pieces should still remain cubed. Season to taste with salt, lemon and red-pepper flakes or hot sauce.
