Frisée and Mango Salad
Valentina P
Mango and frisée make an unlikely match, but pairing the sweet and juicy fruit with the bitter leafy green makes a surprisingly winning combination. The vinaigrette is blessedly simple: olive oil, balsamic, and lime juice. Freshly toasted almonds top it off for that bit of crunch. And yes, toasting the almonds really does make a difference.

Instructions
- Step 1: Stir together the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Step 2: Toast the almonds in a dry frying pan over medium-low heat. Cook for a few minutes, shaking the pan often, until the almonds are fragrant and golden. Keep an eye on them here to avoid burning. Once toasted, transfer immediately into a bowl to stop the cooking process.
- Step 3: Chop the frisée into bite-sized pieces. Combine the frisée, mango, and radicchio in a small bowl. Add a small splash of the dressing and then gently fold in the almonds.
- Serve: Enjoy immediately for best results, with extra dressing on the side as needed.
Recipe Notes
