Instructions
- To make the dressing, whisk together all the dressing ingredients in a large bowl and season with pepper. Add the shrimp to the dressing, cover and leave to marinate in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Halve the mango lengthwise, cutting down around each side of the pit. Cut the flesh on each half in a criss-cross fashion to make cubes, then cut the cubes away from the skin.
- Remove the shrimp from the refrigerator. Add the mango, melon and tomatoes and gently stir together. Arrange the arugula and cucumber slices around the edge of a shallow serving dish, and spoon the shrimp, melon and mango salad into the centre. Garnish with mint leaves and serve.
