A great plant-based side dish, this Vegan Thai Mango Salad is a vibrant addition to any dinner table, and looks especially impressive at dinner parties.
As it's both vegan and gluten-free, it suits a variety of dietary requirements and is so quick and easy to make, as well as being incredibly healthy.
It's a great side salad for lots of different dishes, and I'd especially recommend pairing it with my:
- Peanut Tofu Stir Fry
 - Chickpea Sweet Potato Peanut Curry
 - Thai Green Curry Rice
 - Vegan Tofu Pad Thai
 - Tofu Satay
 - Tofu Satay Curry
 
The sweet, juicy mangoes are perfectly complimented by the fresh, crisp cucumber and carrots, whilst the fragrant basil adds a lovely aroma and roasted peanuts add the perfect nutty crunch.
Then just pour over an easy but flavour-packed dressing made from or tamari (or soy sauce), maple syrup, lime juice and sesame oil to enhance the existing flavours!
