Time 23m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 ripe mango, peeled, pitted and diced
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 lb of fresh lump dungeness crabmeat, picked clean

1 medium sized mango, peeled, pitted, and diced
1 firm but ripe avocado, pitted, peeled, and diced
Tabasco sauce
salt & freshly ground black pepper
ruby red grapefruit section, peeled

Steps:

  • Sauce directions:.
  • Heat the olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add the mango, season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes until the fruit is very tender. Add water, bring to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice. Pour the mixture into a blender and purée until smooth. Chill.
  • Alternatively, if you are pressed for time, put all of the sauce ingredients into a blender and purée.
  • Crab salad directions:.
  • 1 In a bowl add the crab meat, 2 tsp of the cilantro, 1 tsp of the mint, the chopped shallot, a Tbsp of lime juice, 2 Tbsp of olive oil, 10 drops of Tabasco sauce, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix carefully with a fork, to avoid breaking up the larger lumps of crab meat. Set aside.

Chill in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours. When you are ready to serve, gently remove the salads from the molds onto individual plates. Serve the sauce on the side.
