Mexican Mole Rosa ~ Ensalada de Frutas
In Mexico ‘mole’ (pronounced mo-lay) is the name for a sauce made predominantly of nuts, spices and chillies and a range of other complex and delicious ingredients from fruit and vegetables, to seeds and even chocolate! This version is known as mole rosa and comes from a town called Taxco in the state of Guerrero, south-central Mexico. The mole is traditionally cooked with pink coloured pine nuts which give the sauce its rose coloured hue, sometimes with beetroot added to accentuate the colour further. Dessert is ensalada de frutas - a Mexican take on a fruit salad, layered up with whipped cream, caramelised nuts, toasted seeds and topped with a flor de Jamaica (hibiscus) syrup.
