ENSALADA DE MANGO, JICAMA Y PEPINO (MANGO-JICAMA AND CUCUMBER SALAD)



Ensalada de Mango, Jicama y Pepino (Mango-Jicama and Cucumber Salad) image

Provided by Food Network

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 medium (about 1 1/2 pounds) mangoes, peeled, flesh cut from the pit and sliced into 1/2-inch "fingers" or wedges (see technique below)
1 medium (about 1 pound) jicama, peeled and cut into long 1/2-inch-wide "fingers" or wedges
1 long seedless "English" cucumber (or 2 regular cucumbers), cut into long 1/2-inch-wide "fingers" or wedges
1 teaspoon pure ground chile (buy pure guajillo or ancho chile in a Mexican grocery, make it yourself, or substitute a little cayenne)
Salt
2 limes, each cut into 6 wedges

Steps:

  • Cutting the mangoes: Peel the mangoes, then cut the flesh from the pits: A mango pit (to which the flesh clings tightly) is flattish and oval, more-or-less a smaller version of the mango's overall shape. To cut the flesh off the pit, stand a mango on one end and slice the flesh from one side of the pit. Turn the mango around and slice the flesh off the other side. You'll be able to get a couple thin slices of flesh off the pit on each end. Cut the large pieces into long 1/2-inch-wide "fingers."
  • Salad: In pointed Sno-Cone cups (you'll need a snow-cone holder or a glass to support each cup) or in paper cups or glasses, combine a portion of mango, jicama and cucumber "fingers" or wedges (they will be standing in the cups). Mix the chile and 1/2 teaspoon salt; sprinkle over the "salads." Serve with lime wedges for each guest to squeeze over the pieces as they eat them.
  • Variation: Cut the mango, jicama and cucumber into cubes instead of "fingers," and mix together in a large bowl. Juice the limes (rather than cutting them into wedges) and drizzle over the mixture. Sprinkle with the salt and chile, and serve on a buffet or pass this at the table.

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 medium mangos, about 1 1/2 pounds total, peeled, flesh cut from pits, and sliced into 1/2-inch-wide "fingers" or wedges
1 medium jicama, about 1 pound, peeled and cut into long 1/2-inch-wide "fingers" or wedges
1 English cucumber, or 2 regular cucumbers, cut into long 1/2-inch-wide "fingers" or wedges
1 teaspoon pure ground chile (guajillo or ancho, or substitute a little cayenne)

Mix chile with 1/2 teaspoon salt; sprinkle mixture over "salads." Serve with lime wedges to squeeze over pieces as they are eaten.

Tips:

  • Cutting the Vegetables: Use a sharp knife to cut the cucumber, jicama, and mango into thin strips. This will help them absorb the flavors of the dressing better.
  • Preparing the Dressing: Whisk the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl until well combined. Taste the dressing and adjust the seasonings as desired.
  • Marinating the Vegetables: Place the cucumber, jicama, and mango in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
