Instructions
Place a pot of water on the heat and cook the beans according to the instructions on the package. Then let them cool for half an hour.
Cut the avocado and cherry tomatoes into pieces. Place them in a mixing bowl and sprinkle with the lime juice. Mix well.
When the beans have cooled, add them to the avocado and tomato along with the finely chopped coriander. Add a tablespoon of oil and mix. Season with salt and pepper. Place in the fridge for a while to cool down.
I presented this salad as timbale. Take a metal ring (used for this purpose) and fill it with the salad. Finish the topping with chopped chives.
A simple, tasty and filling salad, also delicious at the BBQ.
Notes
You don't immediately think of black beans to make a salad with. In the Mediterranean cuisine we use all kinds of beans and they are used in almost every kind of dish. So this combination is not that strange to me but the best is that we also like it.
