This is mango season and the delicious fruit abounds in the fruit stalls right now.
Taking advantage of its sweetness asides from juicing them and making smoothies, they can be used in fresh salads as well.
I made this platter yesterday evening and you have to take my word for it that it’s yummy and of course, you are welcome to give it a try π
Quick Recipe
2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil
1 lemon, juiced
1/4 flat leaf parsley leaves, chopped
1 long red chilli, deseeded and chopped (optional)
1/2 of a tomato, deseeded and chopped (optional)
1 stick of cucumber (optional)
2 – 3 cups of chopped roasted chicken – remove the skin
2 mangoes, peeled cubed or sliced into small bits
150g of mixed salad greens
Preparation Steps:
- Combine the Olive oil with the lemon juice and add the parsley and chilli if you are using chilli.
- Combine the chicken, mango, salad greens, tomato (optional), and cucumber (optional) in a large bowl. Drizzle your dressing, toss lightly to mix and serve.
- Enjoy π

I wish mangoes grew here – they are expensive even when in season up in the north – love them !

Really! Oh wow! I would have thought you have mangoes over there. They don’t grow here either (the desert), but because there’s a lot (very sweet variety) in Pakistan, they are imported.

I live in Sth Australia. The climate here is too cold. They do grow up north in the tropics of Queensland and the Northern Territory. But Australia is a large country and to transport them here is costly. The distances can be as much as 2 – 3000km one way.
