- 1 cup mango diced
- 1 lime juiced
- ⅓ cup vegetable stock or water
- ¼ tsp salt
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne
Peel and slice mango. Squeeze the juice of one lime.
Combine 1 cup of cubed mango, juice of lime, cayenne, salt and water or vegetable stock in the food processor. Process until all chunks of mango have been combined and you reach a smooth consistency. Enjoy!
- Use fresh mango not frozen
- Be sure the mango is ripe before peeling and dicing
- Use one cup of chopped mango
- Add more or less cayenne depending on your spice preference. Cayenne is very strong so a little goes a long way.
- If you like extra spice add some red pepper flakes.
- Add some herbs for added flavor. I suggest mint or basil
- Use a food processor to blend your dressing. It is the easiest tool to use, as a blender sometimes needs more liquid to get the blades to completely liquefy and combine ingredients.
- The dressing keeps for up to 7 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
