Today’s Recipe: Tangy Mango Coconut Salad

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share my recipe for a refreshing and tropical Tangy Mango Coconut Salad. With the perfect combination of sweet mango, creamy coconut, zesty lime, and spicy jalapeno, this salad is a burst of flavors in every bite. It’s a great side dish for a summer barbecue or a light and healthy lunch option.

To make this delicious salad, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 small jalapeno, diced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt and pepper to taste

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

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • mixing bowl
  • citrus juicer

Start by combining the diced mango, shredded coconut, red onion, jalapeno, and cilantro in a mixing bowl. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture and season with salt and pepper. Gently toss everything together until well combined.

Allow the flavors to meld together in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will enhance the taste of the salad and allow the ingredients to marinate.

Once chilled, give the salad a final toss and serve it up in a colorful bowl. The vibrant colors of the mango, red onion, and cilantro make for a beautiful presentation that is as appealing to the eyes as it is to the taste buds.

This Tangy Mango Coconut Salad weighs approximately 680 grams in total and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 170 grams and contains approximately 150 calories.

A clever tip to make this salad even more flavorful is to toast the shredded coconut before adding it to the mix. Simply place the coconut in a dry skillet over medium heat and toast until golden brown and fragrant. This will add a nutty and crunchy element to the salad that takes it to the next level.

I hope you enjoy making and eating this Tangy Mango Coconut Salad as much as I do. Feel free to customize it with your favorite ingredients or add protein like grilled shrimp or chicken to make it a complete meal. Have fun experimenting in the kitchen and happy cooking!
