This salad from Jose Galindo uses both Mexican ingredients and foreign elements, such as the red oak leaf and boston (butterhead) lettuces. The result is surprisingly delectable.

RECIPE INGREDIENTS

2 heads each red oak leaf and boston lettuce, washed and torn

1 red onion, halved and finely sliced

2 firm mangoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes

1 jicama, peeled, and cut in 1/4-x 2-inch strips, or subtitute water chestnuts

2 avocados, pitted, peeled, and sliced

For Vinaigrette:

1/3 cup cider vinegar

2 cloves garlic, peeled

2 shallots, peeled and chopped

1 cup chopped flat-leafed (Italian) parsley

1 cup chopped cilantro

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon salt, or to taste

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 pinch ground cloves

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1/2 cup olive oil
