1. Separate the chicory leaves, wash and dry them and make a base layer of them on a flat salad plate.

2. Pile the tomato slices on top and then the shallot slices. Scatter over the beans and the artichoke slices.

3. To make the dressing, mix together the sherry vinegar and the oil. Add a pinch of celery salt, a pinch of fennel seed and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

4. Pour the dressing over the salad and serve immediately.

Somehow I think there must be a printing error in this recipe, as I have never heard of cooking avocados and I grew up with them.
