  • More info:
  • This recipe calls for green mango, which is an under-ripe mango, rather than a specific variety. When shopping for green mangoes, choose fruit that is firm to the touch.
  • What to drink:
  • With this menu, try a bottle of Riesling. We particularly like the Smith-Madrone 2007 Riesling from Napa Valley ($25). The mango, pineapple, and citrus flavors of the wine are the perfect complement to this meal. While you're at the market, look for a Thai beer like Singha, which is produced by Thailand's first and largest brewery.

Tips:

  • Choose the right mangoes: For this salad, it's best to use green mangoes that are firm and slightly sour. Avoid mangoes that are too ripe, as they will be too soft and mushy.
  • Prepare the mangoes properly: To prepare the mangoes, first peel them and then slice them into thin strips. You can use a mandoline or a sharp knife to do this. Once the mangoes are sliced, soak them in ice water for at least 30 minutes. This will help to remove some of the sourness and make them more crisp.
  • Use a variety of ingredients: In addition to mangoes, this salad also includes a variety of other ingredients, such as carrots, onions, cilantro, and peanuts. Be sure to use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Dress the salad properly: The dressing for this salad is made with fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, and garlic. Be sure to whisk the dressing together thoroughly before adding it to the salad. You can also adjust the amount of dressing to your liking.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The mangoes will start to soften and lose their crispiness if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Green mango salad is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for a hot summer day. It is also a healthy and nutritious salad that is packed with vitamins and minerals. If you are looking for a new and exciting salad to try, then I highly recommend green mango salad.
