Add the avocado chunks, tangelo slices, chilli, shallots and coriander leaves.  Spoon over the sauce and serve.

For the sauce:  put the lemon and lime juice, white wine, chilli and garlic in a small saucepan. Put on a medium heat and reduce by 2/3.  Remove from the heat and drop in cubes of butter a little at a time, tossing the pan until all the butter is incorporated and the sauce is slightly thickened and glossy.  Add the lime zest and season.  Keep warm till ready to serve.
