Sunshine Salad

This is one of my favorite summer salads.
Mango is a seasonal fruit that is at it's best during summer and this salad highlights the same.


Ingredients:
3 leaves of Romain washed - cut in bite size pieces
4 medium size radishes - cut in quarters
2 medium size ripe mangoes - cut in 1 inch cubes
1/2 cup parsley leaves - roughly chop so that the leaves still retain their shape
1 medium size cucumber - cut in 1 inch cubes
Grated Pecorino-romano for garnish

Dressing:
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Method:
1. In a bowl layer romain, parsley, cucumber, mango and radish in that order.
2. Lightly mix the dressing, don't over mix that will take away the lightness of salad, and pour over the salad.
3. Garnish with some grated cheese(the salty bite from Pecorino adds to the flavor and is my choice of cheese).
