Frisée (pronounced "free-ZAY") is a variation of endive. It has a slightly bitter flavour, similar to radicchio, or Belgian endive, but a lot milder.
This keto friendly, gluten-free, deliciously healthy and different salad is full of flavour and texture and makes a stunning salad starter for any festive occasion or as a light, yet satisfying workday dinner. If you don't find this distinctive curly lettuce in your grocery store, just pick up some salad mixes, like mesclun or your favourite mix of baby greens.
I have added wasabi (Japanese horseradish) for some heat and a bit of garden herbs for the freshness to the homemade mayonnaise. Feel free to use your favourite salad dressing instead.

- Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil and fill a small bowl with ice water. Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water and cook for 6 minutes for soft-cooked. Transfer the eggs to the ice water to cool. Carefully peel the eggs. Cut the eggs in half lengthwise.
- Meanwhile, prepare the dressing. Blend all the ingredients together. Chill until ready for use.
- Trim the root end from the frisée and coarsely chop the frisée. Thinly shred the radicchio. Cut the red onion in half and thinly slice. Cut the avocado in half. Remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and cut the flesh into bite-size pieces.
- In a large bowl, toss together the frisée, radicchio, red onion, avocado, and blue cheese. Transfer the salad to individual plates and top with the eggs and apricot slices if using. Serve with wasabi herb mayonnaise.

Güzel tarif. Teşekkürler:)
This look delicious!😊
This really is an interesting salad. All the more interesting as you get into the details: I love avocado in a salad. But blue cheese, apricot, and wasabi? Wow!
My son and husband are big fans of blue cheese. They would love this salad!
I love frisee. It makes such a great statement on the plate. This salad looks fabulous Angie
That mayo looks perfect! And wonderful for this salad. Love the way the egg looks. :-)
Looks delicious. Have a great day.
avocado and cheese smell so tasty....
Have a wonderful day
Yum.
I love the pleasant bitterness of frisee salads and the flavors in this one sound wonderful, Angie!

une salade estivale plein de saveurs et de couleurs
bonne soirée
Now that's a fabulous summer salad! Love everything about it especially the combination of the apricots and blue cheese. Yummy!
Looks like a perfect meal for a hot summer day!
In French cafes there are often one or more salads with frisée lettuce — many great combinations. I’ve never seen one with avocado and apricots, though, which sounds like a good idea.
be well... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
What a beautiful salad!!! Now if I can find some decent apricots, I'd love to make it!! Or I might have to sub peaches, but I bet it's yummy either way!
Yummy and healthy salad :)
very good, looks so healthy
It is the best and super healthy salad! I love avocado and wasabi, they so good, even more by adding fresee, blue cheese, and hard boiled eggs.
I am not a big fan of blue cheese but that salad looks awesome
This sounds light a delightful salad, Angie! I love the kick of Wasabi in the dressing and soft boiled eggs any day! I wish it weren't so hard to find good frisee here but I'm maybe I could substitute arugula!
I loved how you added Wasabi and fresh herbs to your salad. So tasty fun!
This is a mouth watering looking salad. I love the touch of wasabi in the dressing.
I love everything about this salad. YUM!
What a beautiful salad dear Angie. I would enjoy this for a light dinner during the hot summer. xoxo Catherine
Love this salad, plus the presentation is so nice
The apricot slices will be sweet bonus to the lovely frisee blue cheese salad. I like bitter salad mixes with frisee, radicchio, endive and they don't come cheap (more expensive than the regular mix).
this salad looks beautiful adding wasabi paste sounds good. We usually add sriracha sauce with mayonnaise.
Dinner salads are one of my best dinner plans right now, I'll have to add this into the mix. Wasabi dressing?? Yes, please!
That salad looks fantastic and so pretty too. I've made vegan wasabi mayonnaise a few times, but what a lovely idea to use it as a salad dressing. Scrumptious.

The wasabi definitely gives a kick to the salad dressing. I heart pretty salads like this one.
