OKRA, AVOCADO AND TOMATO SALAD WITH CHILI AND LIME JUICE



Okra, Avocado and Tomato Salad With Chili and Lime Juice image

This lively combination is inspired by one of my favorite Mexican salads, which is made with diced cooked cactus paddles (nopales), onion, tomato and avocado. Cactus paddles are gooey, like okra, so I figured okra could stand in for nopales in this salad. The result is prettier and, I think, tastier -- and certainly easier to work with than cactus. There is no need for oil in this salad. If you want less viscosity, you can marinate the okra in vinegar and salt first (see this week's other recipes), but you will lose the beautiful color. You must serve this right away.
