Ingredients

• 2 medium-sized Green mango
• 1 medium-sized Carrot
• 1 medium-sized Cucumber
• 1 medium-sized Red bell pepper
• 0.5 medium-sized Red onion
• 1 cup Fresh cilantro leaves
• 0.5 cup Fresh mint leaves
• 0.25 cup Unsalted roasted peanuts
• 3 tablespoons Lime juice
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 clove Garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Fresh ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes

Directions

Step 1

Peel the green mangoes, carrot, and cucumber. Thinly julienne the green mangoes, carrot, cucumber, and red bell pepper. Transfer them to a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Thinly slice the red onion into half-moon shapes and add it to the bowl with the julienned vegetables.

Step 3

Roughly chop the fresh cilantro and mint leaves, reserving a few leaves for garnish, and add them to the mixing bowl.

Step 4

In a small dry skillet over medium heat, lightly toast the roasted peanuts for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat, let them cool, and roughly chop. Set aside for garnish.

Step 5

Prepare the cilantro vinaigrette by blending together the remaining cilantro (1/2 cup), lime juice, olive oil, honey, garlic clove, salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes in a blender or food processor until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 6

Pour the cilantro vinaigrette over the salad ingredients in the bowl. Toss gently but thoroughly to combine and coat the vegetables evenly in the vinaigrette.

Step 7

Transfer the salad to a serving plate or bowl, sprinkle the chopped peanuts on top, and garnish with the reserved cilantro and mint leaves.

Step 8

Serve immediately as a fresh appetizer or side dish. Enjoy!
