Persimmon and Sweet Potato Salad Spiced with Wasabi
- 1 persimmon
- 1 medium sweet potato
- 50 ml water
- 1/2 cucumbers
- 1/4 onions (finely chopped)
- 1 tsp wasabi
- 2 tsp honey
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tbsp sunflower oil (or vegetable oil)
- Combine the ingredients.
- Combine the wasabi with honey first, add lemon juice and salt, then finally the oil to emulsify.
- Cut the cucumbers lengthwise into half, then into diagonal slices.
- Mince the onions.
- Combine in a bowl, rub with a pinch of salt (not listed), and let rest.
- Slice the potatoes 1 cm thick and soak in water for 5 minutes.
- Toss in the frying pan, avoiding the pieces from overlapping each other.
- Add water.
- Turn on the heat and once it comes to a boil, bring down the heat to the lowest, cover with a lid, and steam until the potatoes soften.
- Remove the lid once the potatoes are soft enough and evaporate any leftover water.
- While the potatoes are still hot, mash roughly and combine with the ingredients from Step 1.
- Mash to your desired consistency.
- I like leaving chunks.
- Remove the leaves of the persimmon and dice into 1 cm.
- Once the potatoes have cooled, combine the tightly squeezed cucumbers and onions, persimmons, and toss.
