INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE RECIPE

Experience a crunch like no other with this unique dish that combines crispy fried rice paper with a lush mango avocado cashew salad. It’s a textural delight that’s bursting with freshness and flavor.

How to serve
Serve this crispy delight as a stunning appetizer or a light, refreshing meal. The crackle of the rice paper perfectly complements the soft, rich textures of avocado and mango, with cashews adding a satisfying crunch. It’s a dish best enjoyed immediately to secure the crispy rice paper and the cool, fresh salad. Alternatively for making it ahead, you can serve the salad and the deep-fried rice paper individually.

How to store
The crispy rice paper should be enjoyed right after frying to maintain its texture. However, the mango avocado cashew salad can be refrigerated in an airtight container and is best eaten within a day to keep the flavors vibrant and fresh.

Recommended Equipment

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • small frying pan or pot
  • scissors
  • paper towels
  • salad bowl
  • small bowl

Ingredients

Units Scale

CUPS

  • 4 small rice paper
  • 200 milliliters deep-frying fat

DRESSING

  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 garlic clove, grated
  • 1/4 tsp ginger, grated
  • 1/2 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

SALAD

  • 300 grams red cabbage
  • 1 ripe mango
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 40 grams cashew nuts

TOPPINGS

  • cress or sprouts
  • white sesame
  • spring onion

Instructions

  1. Heat about 1 cm of frying oil to 180°C / 356°F in a small frying pan. Carefully cut the rice paper into quarters using scissors, and fry each quarter in the hot oil for 5 seconds until it puffs up and turns fluffy white. Remove from the pan and let it drain on paper towels. Note: The paper is only pliable for a short time after being removed from the oil.
  2. For the salad, finely shred the red cabbage and place it in a salad bowl. Peel the mango and avocado and cut the flesh into bite-sized pieces, adding them to the salad bowl as well. Finally, add the cashews.
  3. For the dressing, mix avocado oil, lime juice, grated garlic and ginger, sesame oil, and soy sauce in a small bowl and pour it over the salad. Mix everything well.
  4. Slice the green part of the spring onion into fine strips and set aside.
  5. If serving immediately, lay out the fried rice papers, fill each with 1-2 tablespoons of salad, and top each with white sesame seeds, cress, and the sliced spring onions. If not serving immediately, I recommend preparing both components separately.

COOKING

1. In a medium-sized bowl, mix the flour, starch, and salt. Set aside.

2. In another medium-sized bowl, mix the brown and white sugar. Add the melted butter with a whisk and beat the mixture until it becomes kind of creamy.

3. Now add one whole egg and one egg yolk and beat until the mixture becomes thicker.

4. Next, add the dry ingredients from the other bowl and stir a little, then add the chocolate and mix everything until no more flour is visible and stop stirring to avoid overmixing the dough.

5. Form the dough into 9 equal-sized balls and place them in a container that fits in the fridge. Place the cookie balls in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours – if you want to prepare the dough in advance, you can leave it in the fridge for up to 48 hours.

6. Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Once the oven is hot, place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 8-10 minutes.

7. Remove the tray with the cookies from the oven and let them cool for 15 minutes. I know it’s hard, but it’s worth the wait 😉
