1. Avocado and Mango Salad by Chef Suraj Rawat: Ingredients -Mango 65 gms, Avocado  65 gms, Mint  1 gms, Orange Reduction 5 ml, Cherry Tomato  6 pieces, Onion  slices. 2 gms. Method for Mangoes: Ripe but firm mangoes are essential for making this salad taste amazing. Method for Avocados: Find avocados that are ripe as well so that the texture is firm, but not too firm. Method for Red onion: If you can use a sweet red onion, it would be the better variety to use but in case you can’t find them, you can also use green onions or shallots. Method for Cilantro: The flavour of fresh cilantro is really great with the mango and avocado. Method for dressing: This is a combination of olive oil, lime juice (which also helps to reduce the avocado oxidizing) along with honey, cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper. (Chef Suraj Rawat )
