Prawn and mango salad

Do you like prawn or mango? Is it a really hot day? Well this is a quick recipe, tasty and refreshing with a kick.

 
Recipe (x4)
250g prawns
200g bag of mixed salad
1 large mango
Olive oil
Salt
Chilli flakes

This time I have used already cooked prawn, but it takes two minutes to cook them from fresh.

The only time consuming step that this recipe require is the cutting and marinating (at least 30 min) of the mango.

What you want are very fine strips, so peel the mango and make longitudinal incision at one side then with a potato peeler make the strips. Turn to the other side and do the same.
 
 
Mix the strips with some olive oil and chilli flakes to taste and put in the fridge for at least for 30 min.
Wash and dry your mixed salad (if you grow your own even better) season with a little olive oil and a pinch of salt. Then add the chilled mango just out of the fridge mix well and plate with some prawns on top.
 
 
 
ENJOY
