Ingredients

• 2 pieces ripe mangoes
• 1 large cucumber
• 0.5 cups unsweetened coconut flakes
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves
• 0.25 teaspoons sea salt
• 1 teaspoon black sesame seeds (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the mangoes and cut the flesh into small cubes. Add the cubes to a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Wash and trim the ends of the cucumber. Slice the cucumber into thin rounds or halve the rounds if preferred. Add the cucumber to the bowl with the mangoes.

Step 3

In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the coconut flakes until they are golden brown and fragrant, stirring frequently to avoid burning. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey, and sea salt to make the dressing.

Step 5

Roughly chop the mint leaves and add them to the bowl with the mango and cucumber.

Step 6

Drizzle the lime-honey dressing over the mango and cucumber mixture and carefully toss everything together to ensure it is evenly coated.

Step 7

Sprinkle the toasted coconut flakes and black sesame seeds (if using) on top of the salad as a garnish.

Step 8

Serve immediately for the freshest flavor. Enjoy this crisp and tropical salad as a side dish or light snack.
