How to Make Avocado Salad With Ginger Dressing

  1. **Ginger Dressing:**
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons mirin, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 1 tablespoon sugar, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1 teaspoon sesame seeds until well combined.
  3. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. **Salad:**
  5. Bring a small saucepan of salted water to a boil over high heat.
  6. Add 1 cup sugar snap peas and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bright green and tender-crisp.
  7. Immediately drain the sugar snap peas and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
  8. Gently pat the sugar snap peas dry with a paper towel.
  9. In a large bowl, combine 1 ripe avocado (diced), the cooked sugar snap peas, and 2 cups of mixed salad leaves.
