Thai Mango & Vegetable Salad

Ingredients

Peanut dressing

• 1 tsp garlic, minced
• 1 tsp ginger, minced
• 1 tsp powdered jaggery, brown sugar, or honey
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tbsp light soy sauce
• 1 tsp chili paste or sriracha
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• Pinch of salt

Salad

• 2 cups ripe mango, sliced
• 1 cup shredded cabbage (green and purple)
• 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 cup raw papaya or carrot, julienned
• 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
• Fresh mint leaves
• Roasted peanuts or sesame seeds, to garnish

Method

1. Whisk all dressing ingredients until smooth. A store-bought Thai-style peanut dressing can be used as a shortcut.
2. Combine the salad ingredients in a large bowl.
3. Pour over the dressing, season to taste, and toss gently.
4. Serve immediately so the vegetables stay crisp.
