Savor the Flavor: Mango Curry Pasta Salad Recipe

Making Mango Curry Pasta Salad

Today, I’m excited to share a unique fusion recipe that I recently created — Mango Curry Pasta Salad. This dish is perfect for those warm summer evenings when you’re craving something refreshing yet flavorful. The combination of sweet mango, spicy curry, and hearty pasta creates a truly delightful experience for your taste buds.

Ingredients:

• penne pasta (250g)
• ripe mango, diced (1 large)
• red bell pepper, diced (1)
• green onion, thinly sliced (3 stalks)
• cilantro, chopped (1/4 cup)
• coconut milk (1/2 cup)
• curry powder (1 tbsp)
• lime juice (2 tbsp)
• salt (to taste)

Kitchen Tools:

• large pot
• strainer
• mixing bowl
• knife
• cutting board

Start by cooking the penne pasta according to the package instructions in a large pot of salted water. Once cooked, drain the pasta using a strainer and rinse it under cold water to stop the cooking process.

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, diced mango, red bell pepper, green onion, and chopped cilantro. In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, curry powder, lime juice, and salt to make the dressing.

Pour the creamy curry dressing over the pasta and toss everything together until well coated. Adjust the seasoning with more salt or lime juice if needed.

Serve the Mango Curry Pasta Salad chilled or at room temperature, allowing the flavors to meld together. This dish is perfect for a light lunch or as a side dish for grilled chicken or fish.

The total weight of the cooked Mango Curry Pasta Salad is approximately 750g. This recipe makes 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 187g. Each serving is estimated to have around 250 calories.

One tip to make this dish even more flavorful is to let it sit in the refrigerator for a couple of hours before serving. This allows the curry flavors to really infuse into the pasta and mango, making each bite even more delicious.

I hope you give this Mango Curry Pasta Salad a try and enjoy the unique combination of flavors. Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite veggies or proteins to make it your own. Bon appétit!
