This simple and quick late fall salad features first of the season clementines, avocados, charred fuyu persimmons, triple cream yogurt, and olive oil.

Serves: 2

Ingredients:

  • 4 Clementine Mandarins, skin removed with a knife and cut horizontally into slices, remove seeds with the tip of your paring knife
  • 1 Avocado, de-seed and the flesh scooped using a small spoon to create un-uniformed shapes
  • 2 Fuyu Persimmons, calyx removed and peeled, cut into to eighths (16 pieces total)
  • ¼ cup of triple yogurt
  • Zest of 1 clementine, around 1 tbs.
  • Organic Extra Virgin Olive oil to taste
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method:

Heat a non-stick sauté pan on medium heat. Place the persimmons without any oil and allow the persimmons to cook until visible crust forms on the edges. Remove from pan and allow it to cool.

On a large serving plate, place a dollop of yogurt and arrange the ingredients.  Dress and season to taste.  

Sprinkle with zest and serve at once.
