Hello everyone, I'm MASA
It has been a long time
since we kept a stay-home life
I think everyone has done a great job!
But whether you start to miss the
good old days
getting chances to eat out or have a drink?
Truly hope that after this epidemic,
we can freely and casually go out
to enjoy lots of restaurant cuisines!
Today I’d like to share a salad suitable
for breakfast or treated as otsumami
Even though we can’t eat out at this moment
we can still make some restaurant-like
dishes at home in an easy way~!
Ok, let's get started~! (๑>◡<)و
The potato here is a regular white potato
you can use red potatoes
with smaller size instead
Red potatoes have thinner skin
so you don’t have to peel off the skin
simply cut them into half of the size
There is no certain time suggestion
for cooking potatoes
as long as you cook them until they soften
While boiling potatoes
we can prepare other ingredients!
If you don’t eat spicy food and yet
you’d like to add some red color in it
you can add cherry tomatoes in it
the adding timing is when you season
the salad at the end! (๑´ڡ`๑)b
I bought a spicy flavor of sausage by accident
so the color inside is a little bit
different from usual…
You may also use bacon instead
Ok, let’s come back and check out
the doneness of potatoes
Very well! This chopstick tender status means
it’s done and we may shut off the stove
Shimeji absorbs oil easily
Adding up the fact that I love the combination
of shimeji and butter
so I add some butter here
You may use olive oil instead
Since we’re going to mix them
with potatoes later on
we can have a stronger seasoning here
Remember, Ingredients absorbs flavor well
while they’re still hot!
Next up, prepare avocado
Avocado oxidizes easily
thus, it’s better getting all other
ingredients done
then start cutting avocado
and season it ASAP!
I happen to have kumquat at home
you can use all kinds of citrus fruits
to prevent the avocado from oxidizing
and add some refreshing taste to the salad!
The seasoning method is similar to potato salad
If you add yogurt then you can reduce
the amount of mayonnaise
They help to keep smooth texture as well!
The paprika powder here is optional
You can add it or not as you wish
Taste it
and add some salt if needed
I also prepare baguette slices here
You can put whatever food
you’re used to alongside the salad
Ok, here is a plate of
(JP) Piri kara abokado potato sarada
Spicy Potato & Avocado Salad
The combination of potatoes and avocado
with smooth texture is super delicious!
The shimeji and garlic stir-fried
in butter smell really great!
And the sausage inside just satisfies your stomach!
Putting the salad on a slice of bread
and it becomes a breakfast to be served!
It occurs to me that
this dish can not only be served as breakfast
it’s also suitable to go with wine
So I hurry back to the kitchen
and make this simple sauce
That’s more like a bistro atmosphere!
It’s not that convenient to go out
and have a drink currently
Since the recipe gives you a chance
to enjoy delicious otsumami at home
You must give it a try~!
