A light and simple salad that is jam-packed full of sweetness, acidity and yummy textures. Ripe mangos and avocados are essential for this dish so if they have been delivered to you a little on the hard side, we recommend popping them on the window sill to ripen for a day or 2 before cooking. It will make all the difference!

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Toast the cashew nuts in a small frying pan over a medium-low heat, for 4-5 minutes, until golden all over. Remove from the pan and set aside to cool.

Step 2

Prepare the mango and the avocado by peeling and cutting into large dice, avoiding the stone of the mango and carefully removing the pip of the avocado. You are aiming for 2cm. Squeeze over the juice of half a lime (if cooking for 4) to prevent the avocado from turning brown. Separate and wash the leaves of the sweet gem lettuce, then roughly slice. Defrost the edamame beans by pouring a kettleful of boiling water over them and leaving them to stand for a few minutes. Drain well and set aside.

Step 3

Toss together the mango, avocado, prawns, edamame beans, chopped coriander, toasted cashews and chopped red chilli (if using).

Step 4

Mix together the olive oil, sweet chilli sauce and the juice of one lime (if cooking for 4). Season to taste with salt and black pepper before pouring over the salad. Mix well and serve with corn tortillas and a few lime wedges, if you wish.
