How to prepare tomato salad with avocado cream and black pepper
- Cut the onion into the smallest cubes you can.
- Score the tomatoes with an X on one end and blanch in boiling water for 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon, run under cold water and then peel.
- Cut in half. Place each half cut-side down and slice.
- In a blender, mix all ingredients for the sauce except the pepper. You will get a fine cream with mayonnaise consistency. Adjust salt. Grind black pepper with the grinder set to coarser grinding.
- Divide the sauce among 4 dessert plates or coffee cups. Place half a sliced tomato over the sauce on each, trying to keep it as compact as possible. Be careful, the slices are slippery, handle them gently.
- Sprinkle onion cubes on the crest of each tomato. Grind black pepper again. Sprinkle with coarse salt. Drizzle with a little olive oil.
- Serve immediately with toasted bread or crispy pita.
