  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make a salad with shrimp, mango, avocado and arugula? Very simple! First, prepare all the necessary ingredients according to the list. And it's better to start with the preparation of the dressing.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    In a bowl, combine vegetable oil, lemon juice, liquid honey, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Whisk everything thoroughly with a fork. If the honey is already candied, it can be melted in a microwave or in a water bath and cooled.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Now prepare the main ingredients of the salad. The most important thing is to choose the right mango and avocado. Mango should not be hard, but also not very soft. Slightly spring when pressed. Ripe fruit emits quite a noticeable aroma. Avocado should also not be too soft, the skin does not fall through when pressed, but should spring.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Boil the shrimp in boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes. In the ingredients, the weight of the shrimp is given in a peeled form, so buy them with a stock.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Then cool and peel off the shell. You can choose any shrimp to taste - large or small. I have king prawns.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Wash and dry the arugula. Instead of arugula, you can use a ready-made mixture of salad leaves, for example Toscana.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    I advise you to thoroughly wash the walnuts (chemicals are applied to them to keep them longer), and then calcinate in a dry frying pan.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    Peel the mango, cut in half, remove the stone. Cut the pulp into slices.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9.

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the stone and peel. Cut the pulp into small slices. Immediately sprinkle the avocado with lemon juice so that it does not darken. Young avocados do not darken as quickly as those that have been lying for a long time. Therefore, it is better to cut the avocado at the very last turn after preparing all the other ingredients in order to immediately add them to the salad.

  10. Step 10:

    Step 10.

    Put arugula, shrimp, avocado and mango slices and walnuts on a platter. Pour the dressing over the salad and serve immediately. Enjoy your meal!

Since the degree of salinity, sweetness, bitterness, sharpness, acid, burning is individual for everyone, always add spices, spices and seasonings, focusing on your taste! If you put some of the seasonings for the first time, then keep in mind that there are spices that it is especially important not to shift (for example, chili pepper).
