Ingredients
For The Toasted Seeds:
- 1/3 cup raw pumpkin seeds (unsalted)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Salad Dressing Ingredients:
- ½ teaspoon ground coriander
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 serrano chile seeds removed and chopped - or jalapeno
- 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped - omit it if you are not a fan
- 3 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
For The Salad:
- 4 medium size yellow peaches ripened & sliced with the skin on
- 2 Persian cucumbers sliced thinly
- 1 ripe avocado cut into small cubes
Instructions
- Toast the seeds: Place pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds in a non-stick skillet. Toast in medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden brown, 5-7 minutes. Do not leave sight of it as it can burn easily. Set aside to cool.
- Make the salad dressing: In a large salad bowl, mix together ground coriander, ground cumin, olive oil, Serrano chile, cilantro, parsley, lemon juice, and salt.
- Assemble salad: Add the sliced peaches, cucumbers, and avocado to the same bowl. Gently toss to ensure that peaches, cucumbers and avocados are coated with the dressing and herbs.
- Sprinkle with pumpkin and sesame seeds. Give it a toss.
- Taste and season with more salt, if necessary. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Storage: This peach avocado salad will keep for up to 1 day covered tightly with plastic wrap in the fridge. After that, I find the avocado starts to turn slightly brown and bitter - and you lose too much of the crunch from the cucumbers. Wake up the leftovers with an extra squeeze of lemon.
- Pick ripe fruit: I find that this salad works best with peaches that are ripened. Though you do not want them to be too ripened that it's mushy.
