  • 2 pieces ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
  • 1 large carrot, grated
  • 1 piece red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Dressing

  • 3 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced mangoes, shredded cabbage, grated carrot, sliced red bell pepper, sliced red onion, and chopped cilantro. Toss well to mix all the vegetables and fruit evenly.
  2. Prepare Dressing: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey (or maple syrup), sesame oil, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Toss with Dressing: Pour the dressing over the mango and vegetable mixture. Toss gently to coat everything evenly with the dressing.
  4. Let Flavors Meld: Let the slaw sit for about 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
  5. Serve: Serve chilled or at room temperature as a side dish with your favorite main course.
  6. Customize: Customize the slaw by adding ingredients such as diced avocado, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of chili flakes for additional flavor.
  7. For Extra Crunch: For a crunchier texture, serve the slaw immediately after mixing the ingredients with the dressing.
  8. Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Notes

  • The slaw is best served fresh but can be stored for up to 2 days in the refrigerator.
  • Adjust the sweetness of the dressing by using honey or maple syrup according to your preference.
  • Adding diced avocado or chopped nuts can enhance creaminess and texture.
  • A sprinkle of chili flakes can add a subtle heat if desired.
  • Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best flavor.
