Step 1. Prepare the Vinaigrette

Begin by making the salad dressing. Open a can of fish and set the fillets aside. In a mortar, combine Dijon mustard, olive oil, red wine vinegar, and black pepper. Add minced garlic, green olives, and some of the fish from the can. Pound these ingredients with a pestle. Finish the dressing by mixing in freshly chopped cilantro.

Tip: The unique part of this dressing is that it incorporates the fish directly into it, creating a creamy and savory base.

Step 2. Boil Vegetables and Eggs

In a kitchen setting, bring a pot of water to a boil on an induction cooktop. Hard-boil three eggs. While they cook, peel and slice a potato, then boil the slices. Next, trim a bowl of green beans and boil them as well. Once cooked, peel and slice the eggs.

Tip: Each item has a cooking timer. Remove them from the water as soon as they're ready to avoid them becoming mushy.

Step 3. Prepare the Baked Pear and Bacon Side Dish

In a separate area, prepare a sweet and savory side. Slice a pear and a piece of butter. Fry bacon bits in a pan with oil and chili powder until crispy. On a baking tray lined with parchment, place a large piece of bread or pastry. Layer it with the sliced butter, pear slices, and crispy bacon. Sprinkle with sugar and salt, then bake in the oven.

Tip: The side dish is cooked separately and served alongside the main salad.

Step 4. Final Salad Assembly

It's time to plate the salad. Spread the prepared vinaigrette on the bottom of a large plate. Arrange the fresh lettuce leaves and fanned avocado slices on top. Neatly add the boiled potato slices, green beans, remaining canned fish, sliced tomatoes, and hard-boiled egg quarters. Finish with a fresh grind of black pepper.

Tip: Layering is key for presentation. Start with the sauce and build the salad upwards, arranging each component artfully.

Step 5. Serve the Complete Meal

Tips and Tricks for Cookingdom Level 71

The recipe is divided into several distinct cooking stations. Complete all tasks at one station before moving to the next.

The vinaigrette is complex; ensure you add all ingredients to the mortar before grinding.
