Equipment

  • Salad Mixing Bowl
  • Grill Pan

Ingredients

Ingredients For Grilled Shrimps:

  • 500 gram shrimps/prawns, cleaned and washed
  • 1 teaspoon red paprika
  • 1 teaspoon taco seasoning mix
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Ingredients For Salad:

  • 1 Cup ripe mango pulp diced
  • 1 Cup ripe avocado diced
  • 1 Cup red bell pepper diced
  • ½ Cup onion diced
  • 1 green chilli sliced

Ingredients For Dressing:

  • ¼ Cup ripe mango pulp
  • ¼ Cup fresh coriander leaves
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 red chilli
  • Salt to taste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ Cup extra virgin olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions

Marinate and Grill Shrimps:

  • Clean, wash and pat dry the shrimps. 
  • Combine shrimps with paprika, taco seasoning and salt. Mix nicely and marinate for 10 minutes. 
  • Heat a grill pan. Drizzle olive oil and grill the marinated shrimps until cooked on both sides. This takes 5 - 10 minutes only. Keep shrimps aside to cool down a bit. 

Prepare the dressing:

  • Combine all the ingredients for dressing in a food processor. Blend till combined nicely. Keep in the fridge till required. 

Assemble the salad:

  • Combine mango, avocado, bell pepper, onion and shrimps in a bowl. 
  • Pour the dressing and toss gently. Sprinkle chopped coriander leaves. 
  • Serve mango avocado salad immediately. 

Notes

  • For preparing the dressing food processor is the right choice instead of a mixer. Blending the dressing ingredients in a mixer might result in a smoothie like paste with no texture. 
  • Or you can blend mango pulp in a mixer and later add chopped coriander, chilli and garlic to it. And get the right consistency using extra virgin olive oil.
