Caprese Salad With Roasted Mango Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Mix lettuce, bell pepper, tomato, and onion together in a bowl. Set salad aside.
• Combine mango, water, oil, lemon juice, onion slices, honey, basil, salt, and pepper for dressing in an electric blender; blend until smooth.
• Add some of the dressing to the salad to moisten. Serve with remaining dressing on the side; add according to preference.

Steps:

• While mozzarella is cold, slice it into 1/4-inch slices. Let it sit, loosely covered, to come to room temperature while you prepare the tomatoes.
• Slice the tomatoes into 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch thick slices, leaving them in a single layer on the cutting board as you go. Sprinkle generously with salt.
• On a serving platter, arrange the mozzarella, tomato slices, and whole basil leaves so they overlap slightly. Pour any tomato juices from the cutting board over the dish. Sprinkle again with salt and pepper, and drizzle with plenty of oil. Top with reserved basil, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Wrap the mango in aluminum foil, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast it for 1 hour, rotating halfway through. The mango should be soft. Remove the foil and let it cool.
• When the mango is cool enough to handle with your hands, slice off the cheeks and scoop the flesh into a small food processor or blender. Repeat with the remaining mango, scooping as much flesh off as possible. Add the minced cilantro, ginger, chile, cumin, vinegar, olive oil and agave nectar. Blend until smooth and add a little water if the dressing is too thick.
• Arrange the tomatoes and mozzarella on a platter and season them with salt and pepper. Drizzle with a few tablespoons of the mango dressing and a little extra olive oil. Top with some torn fresh cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• Arrange the slices of tomato and mozzarella on a platter, alternating between slices of each, and sprinkle over the basil leaves. Season generously with salt and black pepper, then drizzle over the olive oil and vinegar. Serve straightaway.

Steps:

• Use a serrated knife to slice each ball of mozzarella into 4 slices. Repeat with the tomatoes, cutting each into 4 slices.
• Stack 2 slices of tomato and 2 slices of mozzarella, alternating as you stack, on each of 4 serving plates. As you stack, season each tomato slice with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
• In a blender, combine the olive oil, lemon juice and [half] of the capers. Puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Drizzle a bit of the dressing over each mozzarella-­tomato stack. Scatter basil ribbons, a few of the remaining capers and a bit of the lemon zest over each stack.
