This vibrant shaved asparagus and avocado salad is a celebration of fresh, seasonal flavours. By shaving the asparagus into delicate ribbons, you transform the raw vegetable into something tender and elegant, providing a crisp contrast to the buttery texture of the ripe avocado. The addition of fresh mint and a zingy lime dressing brings a brightness that makes this vegan dish feel wonderfully sophisticated despite its simplicity.
As a naturally plant-based and gluten-free recipe, it makes for an ideal healthy lunch or a light starter for a summer dinner party. The combination of heart-healthy fats from the avocado and the antioxidant properties of the greens ensures this dish is as nourishing as it is delicious. Serve it alongside some crusty sourdough bread to soak up the lime-scented olive oil.

Ingredients for Asparagus and Avocado Salad
160 grams (4 or 5) thick asparagus spears
1 avocado, halved, pitted, and peeled
16 fresh mint leaves, chopped
1/2 lime
20 grams (about 2 tablespoons ) extra-virgin olive oil
Pinch of fine sea salt per serving
How to make Asparagus and Avocado Salad
1 Cut away about 2 inches of the base of each asparagus spear. With a vegetable peeler, shave the entire asparagus from bottom to top, reversing your grip and rotating as necessary to shave as much as possible. Don't rush it; be deliberate for the greatest precision.
2 Divide the asparagus strips among 4 salad plates. Cut each avocado half into 4 sections and place 2 wedges on each salad. Sprinkle with the mint leaves. Squeeze lime juice over the salads, drizzle evenly with the oil, and sprinkle with salt.
