Equipment
- round serving platter
Ingredients
- 1 mango
- 2 small avocados or 1 large
- 2 grapefruit
- 2 tablespoons pistachio chopped
Dressing
- 2 tablespoons grapefruit juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin
- ½ lemon juiced
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- ½ tablespoon mint fresh, chopped
- sea salt to taste
- pepper to taste
Instructions
- Slice off the grapefruit peel and pith exposing the fruit.
- Cut the fruit into segments (hold on to any juices). Set aside.
- Peel the mango (I use a vegetable peeler) and slice alongside the pit to each side.
- Cut each mango half into long strips (widthwise).
- Spread out the mango slices with equal distance.
- Peel, halve, and pit the avocado.
- Slice the avocado halves into thin strips widthwise.
- Spread out the slices with equal distance so the avocado now resembles one long strip.
- Tuck and roll the avocado into a rose-shape.
- Transfer the avocado rose using a wide knife or spatula.
- Place the mango slices around the avocado rose in a circular shape.
- Arrange the grapefruit segments in two layers.
- Place the top segments between the bottom segments to create a flower design.
- Mix the ingredients for the dressing: the olive oil, grapefruit juice, apple cider vinegar, honey, lemon juice, and chopped mint.
- Season well.
- Spoon over the salad.
- Sprinkle with chopped pistachios. Serve.
