This is a popular side dish in Cambodia, Thailand and Vietnam. The recipe varies slightly depending on the region and personal preference. After shopping at my local market, this is what I came up with.
Ingredients:
1 unripe green mango, shredded
1/2 cup carrots, shredded
1/3 cup onion, shredded
1/3 cup cilantro (any greens will do)
*Mix in a medium sized bowl
*Make dressing:
1/2 lime, juiced
1 tbs. fish sauce (Not necessary if you don't have it on hand. Use water instead.)
1/3 tsp. salt
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tbs. chili (any chili is fine), minced
*Add dressing and stir.
*Sprinkle with 1 tbs. crushed peanuts.
The end result is a sweet, tart, and spicy salad. The unripe mango gives it a nice crunchy texture.
