Description

This Tangy Thai Green Mango Salad is a vibrant and refreshing dish. It features crisp, tart green mango shreds tossed with zesty lime juice, chili, cilantro, and shallots. It’s a light yet flavorful salad that’s perfect as an appetizer or a side dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium green unripe mangoes, peeled and julienned
  • 1 small red chili or Thai bird’s eye chili finely sliced (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 cup shallots thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons roasted peanuts crushed
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrot optional
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds optional
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 1 teaspoon palm sugar or light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar optional
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes optional
  • 1 tablespoon water to balance flavors if needed

Instructions

  1. Peel the green mangoes with a vegetable peeler. Using a julienne peeler or a sharp knife, cut the mango into thin, matchstick-like strips. Place the strips into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Thinly slice the shallots and chili. Roughly chop the cilantro. Prep any additional vegetables like shredded carrots.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, and rice vinegar. Taste and adjust the balance. Stir in chili flakes for extra spice, if desired.
  4. Pour the dressing over the mango mixture. Add the cilantro, sliced shallots, and chili. Toss gently using tongs or salad spoons.
  5. Top the salad with crushed roasted peanuts and toasted sesame seeds just before serving.

Notes

  • Green mangoes should be firm and not juicy for the best texture.
  • Adjust chili and chili flakes to your spice preference.
  • Optional add-ins include shredded green cabbage, bean sprouts, sliced cucumber, or thinly sliced green onions.
