Ingredients
- 2 pieces ripe mangoes
- 1 large cucumber
- 0.5 cups unsweetened coconut flakes
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves
- 0.25 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 teaspoon black sesame seeds (optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Peel the mangoes and cut the flesh into small cubes. Add the cubes to a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
Wash and trim the ends of the cucumber. Slice the cucumber into thin rounds or halve the rounds if preferred. Add the cucumber to the bowl with the mangoes.
Step 3
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the coconut flakes until they are golden brown and fragrant, stirring frequently to avoid burning. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey, and sea salt to make the dressing.
Step 5
Roughly chop the mint leaves and add them to the bowl with the mango and cucumber.
Step 6
Drizzle the lime-honey dressing over the mango and cucumber mixture and carefully toss everything together to ensure it is evenly coated.
Step 7
Sprinkle the toasted coconut flakes and black sesame seeds (if using) on top of the salad as a garnish.
Step 8
Serve immediately for the freshest flavor. Enjoy this crisp and tropical salad as a side dish or light snack.
