Hi everyone!

A special summer recipe thanks to the combination of different seasonal fruits and mozzarella.

As always, then, in a few moves you will bring to the table a plate of great effect, both in taste and colors.

Let’s start:

PARADISE SALAD

Ingredients for 4 people: 200g fresh rocket – 2fresh mango – 2fresh avocado – 2 Mozzarella – the juice of 2 green lime – fresh red chili pepper – 2fresh onions – extra virgin olive oil

Preparation:

Wash all the ingredients well and dry them well, especially the rucola salad. Cut the avocados in two according to their length, remove the seed and peel them. Then slice them thin. Do the same with the mangoes, paying attention to the central core which, being attached to the pulp, will be more difficult to extract.

Slice the mozzarella in thin slices and begin to assemble your salad by putting a tuft of rocket in the center of the dish and around the slices of mango, avocado and mozzarella alternating.

In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by mixing the chilli pepper cut into rounds with the lime juice and then emulsifying with extra virgin olive oil that you pour into the container.

Season your salad with this emulsion and decorate with fresh spring onion washers. Serve cold.

Enjoy your meal!

Saving at home – Caesar’s Salad (USA)

EVERY DAY: AN EASY – FAST – AND CHEAP – RECIPE THAT SUITS EVERYONE

Hi everyone!

The Caesar Salad was invented in 1924 in the restaurant of Caesar Cardini, an Italian-American, in Tijuana, Mexico.

The original recipe of Caesar’s Salad also includes an egg in the sauce emulsion (which I replaced with a tablespoon of mayonnaise).
My version also provides for the replacement of bacon with bresaola.

Let’s start:

CAESAR’S SALAD (USA)

Ingredients for 4 people: 250 grams of salad – 60 grams of bresaola – 4 slices of bread – 30 grams of Parmesan cheese in flakes – 2 tablespoons of lemon juice – 2 tablespoons of lemon juice – 2 tablespoons of lemon juice – 1 teaspoon of worcester sauce – 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise – oil – salt – pepper

Preparation:

Brown the bresaola (dried beef) in a frying pan and, as soon as it becomes crisp, remove from the heat.

Cut the bread into cubes and brown them in the same pan where you browned the bresaola (so that the bread takes a bit of its flavor).

Prepare a sauce with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, worcester sauce, salt and pepper, and mayonnaise. Stir until you get a homogeneous sauce.

Wash, chop and dry the salad and put in a bowl. Season with a little oil.

Add the bread cubes and bresaola to the salad and season with the sauce.

Finally, add the flaked parmesan cheese to the Caesar’s salad and serve.

Enjoy your meal!
