Exploring New Flavors: Mango Coconut Spaghetti

Today, I’m excited to share a unique and flavorful vegetarian recipe that I recently whipped up in my kitchen — Mango Coconut Spaghetti. This dish is perfect for a hot summer day when you’re craving something light, refreshing, and a little out of the ordinary. The combination of sweet mango, creamy coconut, and al dente spaghetti is sure to delight your taste buds.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 200g spaghetti
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 200ml coconut milk
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • Handful of fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 1 red chili, thinly sliced
  • Salt, to taste

To bring this dish to life, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

  • large pot
  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • lime zester
  • large serving bowl

Start by cooking the spaghetti according to the package instructions in a large pot of salted water. While the spaghetti is cooking, prepare the sauce by combining the diced mango, coconut milk, lime juice, torn basil leaves, sliced red chili, and a pinch of salt in a serving bowl.

Once the spaghetti is al dente, drain it and add it to the serving bowl with the mango-coconut sauce. Toss everything together until the spaghetti is well coated in the sauce. The heat of the pasta will slightly cook the mango, releasing its natural sweetness and creating a creamy sauce with the coconut milk.

Before serving, garnish the Mango Coconut Spaghetti with some extra torn basil leaves and a sprinkle of lime zest for a burst of freshness. The combination of flavors and textures in this dish is truly something special — the sweetness of the mango, the creaminess of the coconut milk, the hint of spice from the chili, and the zing of lime all come together in perfect harmony.

This recipe yields a total weight of approximately 800g of Mango Coconut Spaghetti, with 4 servings at around 200g each. One serving is approximately 300 calories.

A clever tip for this dish is to let it sit for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together even more, creating an even tastier dish.

I encourage you to give this Mango Coconut Spaghetti a try and get creative with it. Feel free to add in some grilled vegetables, tofu, or even a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes for some extra crunch. Enjoy!
