Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Mango (ripe, peeled and diced)
- 0.5 cup Coconut milk (unsweetened)
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 teaspoon Green curry paste
- 1 teaspoon Honey (or agave syrup for vegan option)
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free option)
- 1 clove Garlic (fresh, minced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Ginger (fresh, grated)
- 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)

Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the coconut milk, green curry paste, and minced garlic. Heat over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until the curry paste is fully dissolved and the mixture is fragrant (about 2-3 minutes).
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
In a blender or food processor, combine the diced mango, cooled coconut curry mixture, lime juice, honey, soy sauce, grated ginger, and red chili flakes (if using). Blend until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl and stir in the chopped cilantro.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional lime juice, honey, or soy sauce if needed.
Chill the sauce in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.
Serve as a dipping sauce for cooked shrimp, grilled seafood, or fresh veggies. Enjoy!
