Chemmeen Manga Salad (Prawn & Mango Salad)
Servings: 2 | Prep time: 15 mins | Cook time: 5 mins
1. The Prawns (Chemmeen)
Prawns (Medium/Large): 250g (cleaned and deveined)
Chilli Powder: 5g
Turmeric Powder: 2g
Salt: To taste
Coconut Oil: 15ml (for searing)
Method: Marinate the prawns with spices and salt. Heat a pan with coconut oil and sear the prawns over high heat for about 2 minutes per side until charred and cooked through. Set aside to cool slightly.
2. The Salad Base
Ripe Mango: 200g (firm but sweet, cut into 1-inch cubes)
Red Onion: 50g (thinly sliced)
Fresh Coriander: 15g (roughly chopped)
Bird’s Eye Chilli (Kanthari): 2–3 (thinly sliced for heat)
Cucumber (Optional): 50g (deseeded and cubed for extra crunch)
3. The Zesty Dressing
Whisk these together in a small bowl:
Fresh Lime Juice: 30ml (about 2 limes)
Honey or Brown Sugar: 10g (to balance the lime)
Extra Virgin Olive Oil: 20ml
Black Pepper: 3g (freshly cracked)
Salt: 2g
4. Assembly & Plating
In a large chilled mixing bowl, combine the mango cubes, sliced onions, chillies, and coriander.
Add the cooled grilled prawns to the bowl.
Pour the dressing over the ingredients and toss gently so you don't mash the mango.
Garnish: Finish with a few fresh mint leaves and a wedge of lime on the side
