Recipe: Two-Shrimp Green Mango Salad
Ingredients
- 5 cloves garlic
- 4 birdseye chillies, chopped
- 1 heaped tablespoon dried shrimps*
- 300g green (under-ripe) mango, peeled, deseeded and shredded
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 2 limes, juiced
- 1 tablespoon caster sugar
- 4 small tomatoes, cut into eighths
- 300g cooked shelled prawns, tails intact
- 2 large handfuls Thai basil leaves
- 4 tablespoons crushed unsalted toasted peanuts
Method
1. Place garlic and chilli in a large mortar, sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt and pound with a pestle to achieve a paste-like consistency. Roughly pound in dried shrimps and a small handful of shredded mango, so that it's crushed, but still chunky. Add fish sauce, lime juice and sugar, and stir until sugar dissolves.
2. Place mixture in a large bowl, add remaining mango, tomato, prawns, basil and half of the toasted peanuts, and toss through until well coated. Serve with remaining crushed peanuts sprinkled on top.
