Avocado Salad (Ensalada de Aguacate)

This vibrant avocado salad, known traditionally as ensalada de aguacate, is a masterclass in simplicity. By quick-pickling red onions in red wine vinegar, you create a sharp, crunchy contrast to the buttery, rich texture of the avocados. It is a versatile vegan dish that relies on the quality of its modest ingredients, making it an excellent choice for a light lunch or a sophisticated side dish during the warmer months.

Packed with healthy fats and bright flavours, this salad fits perfectly into a plant-based diet or as a refreshing accompaniment to grilled proteins. The pink hue of the marinated onions adds a beautiful pop of colour to the plate, ensuring it looks as good as it tastes. Serve it immediately to enjoy the avocados at their peak ripeness.

Ingredients for Avocado Salad (Ensalada de Aguacate)

  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced

  • 240ml red wine vinegar

  • 1 Florida avocado or 2 Hass avocados (about 450g total), sliced

  • 1 tablespoon highest-quality extra-virgin olive oil

  • Salt and black pepper

How to make Avocado Salad (Ensalada de Aguacate)

Place the onion slices and vinegar in a resealable plastic bag, press out as much air as possible, and close the bag. Alternatively, place the onion and vinegar in a small bowl and put a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the ingredients so that the onion slices remain submerged in the vinegar. Allow the onion to marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Reserve a few tablespoons of the vinegar used to marinate the onion before draining the onion slices and setting aside. Place the avocado slices on a serving platter and top with the red onion slices. Drizzle the oil and reserved red wine vinegar over the salad and season with salt and pepper to taste.
