Thai-Style Mango Salad

I’ve tried similar salads many times at Thai restaurants. Sweet mango tossed with a tangy dressing and a little chili heat. I can’t claim that this recipe is authentic, as I make it to suit my own taste, but we all love it 

Ingredients

• 1 ripe mango

• 1 small carrot

• 1/2 medium cucumber

• 2 tbsp finely chopped cilantro

• A pinch of chili flakes

For the Dressing

• 1 tbsp lime juice

• 1 tsp fish sauce (can be substituted with soy sauce)

• 1 tsp brown sugar

Steps

1. Cut the mango, carrot, and cucumber into thin strips

2. Finely chop the cilantro

3. Combine everything, lightly sprinkle with chili flakes, and toss with the dressing

Dressing

1. Mix all the ingredients until the sugar dissolves

2. Dress the salad just before serving

For an extra touch, the salad can be sprinkled with finely chopped peanuts
