Mango Salat

Sweet, tangy, and ready in 10 minutes

This salad works as a side dish or a light lunch. The mango adds natural sweetness, the lime keeps it fresh, and the chili gives it a gentle kick.

What you need

  • 1 ripe mango (not too soft)
  • 1 cucumber
  • 1 lime (juice + zest)
  • Fresh cilantro or mint
  • Optional: red chili flakes or fresh chili
  • Salt

How to make it

  1. Peel and dice the mango into bite-sized pieces
  2. Dice the cucumber (no need to peel if organic)
  3. Chop the herbs roughly
  4. Mix everything in a bowl
  5. Squeeze lime juice over it, add zest
  6. Add a pinch of salt and chili if using
  7. Toss gently and serve

Why this works

No cooking, no complicated dressing. Just fresh ingredients that taste good together. Eat it immediately or let it sit for 10 minutes to let the flavors blend.

Practical tip: Use slightly firm mango so it doesn't turn mushy. If your mango is too ripe, eat it with a spoon instead.
