This mango and avocado carpaccio with baby spinach is an original and visually stunning appetizer. The plate is beautiful and bursting with color!

But when you taste it, it’s also a surprising and absolutely delicious dish. Indeed, we don’t often get to find mango in a savory dish, and here it works wonders. The lemon sauce tones down the fruit’s sweetness, enhances the avocado, and creates a connection between the two. The contrast in textures between the avocado and the mango is also very interesting.

Finally, to top it all off, this mango-avocado carpaccio is easy to make. However, I recommend not preparing this appetizer too far in advance, as even lemon-squeezed avocado can oxidize when exposed to air!

4 lawyers ripe
1 mango ripe
150 g of spinach sprouts
4 tbsp of olive oil
2 lemons
salt and pepper

1
Squeeze the lemons and pour the juice into a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, add the olive oil, and whisk until slightly emulsified.
2
Peel the mango and slice it horizontally into thin slices, about a few millimeters thick. If you have a mandoline, it will come in handy; otherwise, use a wide kitchen knife. Toss the mango slices with a little of the lemon vinaigrette and set aside in a bowl.
3
Peel the avocado using a tbsp, and do the same as you did with the mango.
4
On each plate, arrange the avocado and mango in alternating layers. For an attractive presentation, the slices should overlap without any gaps between them. You’ll also want the slices to be fairly narrow so they don’t pile up, so feel free to cut the larger avocado and mango slices in half.
5
Add the spinach shoots to the rest of the dressing in the bowl, and gently toss by hand.
6
Arrange the spinach on the plate and enjoy!
