We are having tamales for dinner and I wanted a sweet, but depthy dressing for a salad of lettuce, radishes and creamy avocado and thought mango was the perfect base. Because mangoes can vary so much in sweetness I recommend starting with just a bit of the agave. I used a small champagne mango so you might want to adjust for size as well.

Ingredients

1 small bunch chives, finely chopped
1/3 cup fruity olive oil
1/2 small lime
1 tbsp. agave syrup
1 tsp. dijon mustard
1 tbsp. rice vinegar
1 ripe mango

Method

01

Peel the mango and remove as much of the fruit as you can (I usually give the pit to my daughter to slurp on while I am cooking). Put it and everything except the olive oil and chives into a blender and blend until smooth. Taste the mango first for sweetness and add a little agave at a time so as not to get too sweet.
02

With the motor running, add the oil in a slow stream until it is nicely emulsified. Fold in chives and season to taste with salt and pepper.
03

This dressing is great on a salad of butter lettuce with avocado and green onion. Top it with grilled shrimp for a whole, fabulous meal.
