Tomato and Citrus Salad

Prepare the ingredients. This is what will be on your plate – prepare the ingredients in advance so the work goes smoothly 🍊🥑🥗

Supreme the grapefruit. Trim off the top and bottom of the grapefruit. Using a knife, cut away the rind around the fruit down to the flesh, then gradually cut out the individual segments between the membranes. Remove any seeds. Keep the rinds with trimmed bits; squeeze them into the dressing.

Supreme the orange. Process the orange in the same way – trim off the rind and use a knife to remove clean segments.

Cut the tomatoes. Wash the tomatoes and cut them into smaller quarters or pieces so they are easy to eat in the salad.

Prepare the avocado. Halve the avocado, remove the pit, peel it and cut into cubes.

Prepare the vinaigrette. In a small bowl prepare the vinaigrette: mix roughly with a little vinegar, squeeze the leftover trimmings from the peeled citrus into it, add salt and pepper. Mix everything so the dressing comes together.

Slice the shallot. Peel the shallot and cut into thin slices.

Toss the salad. Place the tomatoes, citrus segments, avocado and shallot into a large bowl. Add the vinaigrette and gently toss everything so the ingredients don't get crushed.

Serve. Divide into bowls and serve immediately – an ideal light and fresh salad 🥗✨
