- Put together the dressing ingredients in a small bowl and pour half over the mango and potato.
- With tongs in hand, arrange sweet potato wedges directly over the grill and leave for 6-8 min, till grill marks appear and the bottom sides begin to soften. Turn and grill the other side for a further 6 min. While the other sides are cooking, arrange the mango wedges directly on the grill. Grill for about 2-3 min on each side. Transfer all the wedges to a cutting board and cut into cubes. Place them in a bowl and toss with the remaining dressing.
- Arrange lettuce leaves on salad plates. Scatter the sweet potato and mango over the lettuce and add in a sprinkling of sea salt and finely sliced mint.
- Serves 4-6.
