Ingredients

• 2 whole Ripe mangoes
• 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
• 1 large Cucumber
• 1 small Red onion
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Peel the mangoes and cut the flesh into small bite-sized cubes. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Peel and slice the cucumber thinly. Add it to the bowl with the mangoes.

Step 3

Finely slice the red onion and chop the fresh cilantro. Add them to the bowl as well.

Step 4

In a small dry skillet, toast the mustard seeds over medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until they start to pop. Remove from heat and let them cool slightly before adding to the salad.

Step 5

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined. This will be your dressing.

Step 6

Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to coat everything evenly.

Step 7

Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt or lime juice to suit your palate.

Step 8

Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
