Steps:
- Sauce directions:.
- Heat the olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add the mango, season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes until the fruit is very tender. Add water, bring to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice. Pour the mixture into a blender and purée until smooth. Chill.
- Alternatively, if you are pressed for time, put all of the sauce ingredients into a blender and purée.
- Crab salad directions:.
- 1 In a bowl add the crab meat, 2 tsp of the cilantro, 1 tsp of the mint, the chopped shallot, a Tbsp of lime juice, 2 Tbsp of olive oil, 10 drops of Tabasco sauce, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix carefully with a fork, to avoid breaking up the larger lumps of crab meat. Set aside.
- 2 In a separate bowl add the mango, avocado, 1 Tbsp olive oil, 1/2 Tbsp of lime juice, the remaining cilantro and mint leaves, 10 drops of Tabasco, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix gently with a spoon, taking care not to mush the avocado pieces.
- 3 Spoon some mango avocado mixture on to a chilled plate, gently mound some crab mixture over it. Garnish with cilantro leaves. For a tasty added touch if you have them, arrange peeled sections of sweet ruby red grapefruit around the salads. The grapefruit provides a flavorful complement to the crab salad.
- Alternatively you can use small tureens or desert bowls for individual molds, line the mold with plastic wrap, then layer the crab mixture and the mango avocado mixture. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours. When you are ready to serve, gently remove the salads from the molds onto individual plates. Serve the sauce on the side.

Steps:
- Fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot with 2 inches oil, and heat over high heat until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 350 degrees. Working in 3 batches, fry plantains until golden, about 4 minutes, and transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon (return oil to 350 degrees between batches). Flatten plantains with a mallet until very thin. Return oil to 350 degrees. In batches, refry plantains until golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes. Transfer tostones (the plantain chips) to a paper-towel-lined plate, and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Gently combine crabmeat, mayonnaise, avocado, lime juice, chives, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Divide evenly among tostones, and garnish with radishes. Crab salad can be refrigerated, surface covered with plastic wrap, up to 8 hours. Tostones can be stored at room temperature, uncovered, up to 2 hours.
