Today’s Exotic Creation: Spicy Mango Basil Stir-Fry

As the vibrant colors of summer begin to emerge, I find myself inspired to create dishes that capture the essence of this lively season. Today, I’m excited to share with you my Spicy Mango Basil Stir-Fry recipe. This unique combination of sweet mango, aromatic basil, and fiery spices is sure to tantalize your taste buds and add a burst of flavor to your dining experience.

To create this exotic dish, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 1 ripe mango (diced)
  • Handful of fresh basil leaves
  • 1 red bell pepper (sliced)
  • Handful of baby corn
  • 2 chili peppers (sliced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp sriracha sauce
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For this recipe, you will need the following kitchen tools:

  • Wok
  • Chef’s knife
  • Cutting board
  • Wooden spoon
  • Measuring spoons

To begin, heat the vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced chili peppers, and sauté until fragrant. Then, add the diced mango, sliced red bell pepper, and baby corn to the wok. Stir-fry the vegetables until they begin to soften.

Next, add the soy sauce and sriracha sauce to the wok, along with salt and pepper to taste. Continue to stir-fry the ingredients until the sauces are well combined and the vegetables are tender-crisp. Finally, tear the fresh basil leaves and sprinkle them over the stir-fry, tossing gently to incorporate the aromatic herb.

Once the basil has wilted slightly, remove the wok from heat and transfer the Spicy Mango Basil Stir-Fry to a serving dish. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal that’s bursting with flavor.

This Spicy Mango Basil Stir-Fry weighs approximately 800 grams in total and serves 4 people. Each serving weighs around 200 grams, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

Tip: For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a splash of fresh lime juice to the stir-fry just before serving. The citrusy brightness will elevate the dish to new heights and add a refreshing kick to each bite.

I invite you to give this Spicy Mango Basil Stir-Fry a try and make it your own by adjusting the spice level or adding your favorite vegetables. Enjoy the unique blend of sweet, spicy, and savory flavors in this exotic dish!
