Fantastic, used thin slices of chorizo, spring onions, Celery, cucumber and white cabbage, all worked well, amazing dressing.

OMG! This was divine!! It is his interpretation of the traditional Cobb salad, and I think it is better than the original recipe. As he says, you can change ingredients and use whatever you have in the fridge. I was a bit worried about the mango dressing... even though I love mangoes, I am not very keen in some of the savoury recipes that use mango, but I must tell you, it really works in this one.

very good. loved the sauce. was meant for 4 people, my partner ate 3/4 which is a good sign haha. the two of us finished it all. i used frozen mango, therefore quicker? didn't take me long at all. would make again. and indeed prosciutto genius.

I agree with previous posters—it was so amazing—and the crispy prosciutto was its crowning glory! It does take quite a while to prepare the elements, maybe a couple hours (boiling eggs, chopping, charring, cooking the prosciutto, assembling). I used already cooked but frozen shrimp and it worked fine. I will need a larger platter next time since everything could barely fit on the one I used.

Although my mangoes were quite ripe, the dressing tasted kind of bitter and tart, so I added some agave nectar, which helped a lot. I used jalapeno instead of Fresno chile. Omitted the red onion from the salad, but used everything else, adjusting quantities to our taste and number of diners. I loved it, especially the roasted prosciutto. My son was less enthusiastic, but he doesn't like shrimp.

Really delicious although it took me quite a long time to prepare all the pieces. I will definitely make the mango dressing again and also the crispy prosciutto which is a perfect way to add gluten-free crunch to salads.

Excellent Cobb salad. Really nice mix of flavors, and the dressing was tasty too. The roasted prosciutto was genius - I’ll definitely use that in lieu of bacon in other recipes from now on. I made two small changes - romaine instead of iceberg, and scallions in lieu of red onions. We’ll have this one again.
