Mango salad
Mango salad recipes are believed to have originated in Thailand, where the fruit is abundant and often used in dishes. The dish is thought to have then spread to other Southeast Asian countries, such as Vietnam and Burma. From there, it is believed to have made its way to India, where it has become a popular side dish.
Mango salad recipes typically include a combination of diced mango, cucumber, onion, chili peppers, and lime juice. The salad is often served with fish or chicken.
While the dish has its roots in Southeast Asia, it has become popular in many parts of the world, including the United States. In recent years, mango salad has been featured on the menus of many restaurants. It has also become a popular recipe to make at home.
Advice
Making a mango salad is a great way to add a bit of sweetness and texture to your dish. Start by washing and chopping one ripe mango into cubes. Then, add in some diced red onions, cucumber slices, tomatoes, and fresh cilantro for a delicious flavor combination. To finish, make a dressing with freshly squeezed lime juice, olive oil, honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss everything together and enjoy! When selecting a mango, look for one that is slightly soft but still firm. The firmer the mango, the sweeter it will be. Additionally, you can experiment with adding other ingredients like jalapenos, bell peppers, and feta cheese to create a unique and flavorful salad.
