Introduction

Today, I’m excited to share a unique dish that combines unexpected flavors and textures. This recipe was inspired by my recent trip to a tropical island, where I discovered a new fruit I couldn’t wait to experiment with in the kitchen. The result is a refreshing and surprising dish that is perfect for a summer day or a special occasion.

Ingredients

  • dragon fruit (200g)
  • avocado (150g)
  • prosciutto (100g)
  • fresh mint leaves
  • lime juice
  • chili flakes
  • sea salt

Preparation

To start, carefully peel the dragon fruit and avocado and cut them into bite-sized cubes. Thinly slice the prosciutto into strips. Arrange the dragon fruit and avocado on a serving platter, alternating them to create a colorful pattern. Scatter the prosciutto strips on top.

In a small bowl, mix together the lime juice, chili flakes, and a pinch of sea salt. Drizzle this dressing over the fruit and prosciutto. Finely chop the fresh mint leaves and sprinkle them on top as a garnish.

Cooking

There is no cooking required for this dish, making it a quick and easy recipe to prepare.

Serving

This dish can be served immediately as a light and refreshing appetizer or light meal. The combination of sweet dragon fruit, creamy avocado, salty prosciutto, and zesty lime dressing creates a burst of flavors in every bite.

Tips

For an extra burst of flavor, try grilling the avocado and prosciutto for a few minutes before assembling the dish. The heat will enhance the flavors and add a delicious smokiness to the dish.

Final Details

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 450g. This recipe makes 2 servings, with each serving weighing around 225g. Each serving is estimated to be around 250 calories.

I hope you enjoy trying this unique dish and feel free to experiment with different ingredients to make it your own. Happy cooking!
