Oishii salad



We had friends over for dinner and instead of ordering KFC, we decided to make it a Japanese Italian evening. So I cooked two types of spaghetti - carbonara and Vongole and a salad in Japanese style. The salad - Japanese Avocado Salad is a must try. I adapted from a recipe and it was so delicious, it was wiped out.

Sauce:
1 Tb soy sauce
2 Tb Goba Shabu Shabu (dipping sauce for shabu shabu which has a strong sesame taste)
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp sugar
pinch of salt

Lettuce
Cherry tomatoes
Avocado
Japanese cucumber

1. Whisk together the sauce ingredients. You can alter the exact measurements of each ingredient to your overall taste for the sauce.

2. Arrange all the greens in a bowl.

3. Dribble the sauce over the salad

4. Voila!
