Easy Homemade Thai Mango Salad Recipe (video)

[Saviolo]

Another quick and easy one this week. This mango salad is an incredible accompaniment to the satay beef we did last week and the ajaad the week before. The trick is in the texture, much like what we did for the Korean japchae, we cut everything for this recipe into shoestring strips, which really enhances the texture of everything. We also used a couple of spicy serrano peppers from our garden, but we found that the final result was not all that spicy at all. The coolness of the mango really calmed down the heat of our peppers.

Of course Thai birdseye peppers are a little more traditional in something like this, but the beauty of making it at home is that you really get the opportunity to control the heat to a level you like. If you want it hotter, you can toss in some hotter peppers like some strips of ghost or scorpion chilis. If you want it a little milder, then use some shishito peppers or poblano peppers. You could even use little strips of coloured bell peppers if you don't want any heat at all.
