Fresh Mango Cucumber Salad with Lime-Chili Dressing Recipe

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings: 4 servings
Calories: 95

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large ripe mango
  • 1 English cucumber
  • 1 small red chili
  • handful fresh cilantro leaves
  • 2 tbsp roasted peanuts
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tsp brown sugar

Method
 

  1. Peel the mango, remove the flesh from the pit, and cut into ½-inch cubes. Halve the cucumber lengthwise, scoop out any large seeds, and slice into ¼-inch half-moons. Place both in a bowl with the torn cilantro.
  2. In a small bowl whisk the lime juice, fish sauce, and brown sugar until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the sliced chili.
  3. Pour the dressing over the mango and cucumber, add the peanuts, and toss gently to coat. Serve right away.

Notes

If you need to prepare it ahead, store the dressing, produce, and peanuts separately and toss just before serving. The salad loses crunch quickly once dressed, so it’s best eaten the day it’s made.
