INSTRUCTIONS

* Note: Make pickling liquid in a medium saucepan by combining the white
vinegar, sugar, crushed garlic, crushed Thai chiles, and crushed
lemongrass. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Remove from heat, transfer to
a bowl, and let cool.
Slice down either side of the pit of the mango, leaving you with two
halves. Using a mandoline, run the mango lengthwise down the blade leaving
you with thin slices. Add mango to pickling liquid, and pickle for about 30
minutes.
Make dressing in a medium-size bowl, combining chile sauce, 1 tablespoon
reserved grapefruit juice, and 1 tablespoon pickling liquid. Whisk in 2 to
3 tablespoons olive oil to emulsify. Season with salt and pepper. If too
hot, add more pickling liquid.
In a large bowl, mix endive, watercress, shallot, lemongrass, garlic,
chile, mint, cilantro, basil. Toss in half of the grapefruit pieces. Add
dressing to salad, and toss. Drain the pickled mango; set aside.
Divide salad equally among four plates. Divide the pickled mango equally,
and place on top and around greens. Garnish each plate with remaining
grapefruit pieces, 1 tablespoon shredded coconut, Thai pickled lemon, and
cilantro sprigs. Serve immediately.
Serves 4.
