Follow The Directions

01

Step

Heat peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add shrimp and cook until they begin to turn pink, approximately 2 minutes. Be careful not to overcook them.

03

Step

Add chopped garlic and pickled ginger to the wok. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.

04

Step

Stir in mirin, fish sauce, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Allow the sauce to simmer for about 1 minute, allowing the flavors to meld.

05

Step

Add thinly sliced red onion, matchstick-cut carrots, chopped cashews, and green onions. Stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened but still crisp.

06

Step

Gently fold in the cubed mango, lime juice, soy sauce, and a pinch of sugar. Remove the wok from the heat.

07

Step

Arrange chopped romaine hearts on a serving platter. Spoon the warm mango-prawn salad over the romaine lettuce, ensuring the dressing is distributed evenly.

08

Step

Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

For an extra layer of flavor, toast the cashews lightly before adding them to the salad.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to suit your spice preference.
If you don't have mirin, a touch of sweet sherry can be used as a substitute.
Ensure the mango is ripe but firm to maintain its shape during cooking.
Garnish with extra green onions and a sprinkle of cashews for a more appealing presentation.

    I found the salad a bit too spicy for my taste, so I reduced the amount of red pepper flakes. It was still flavorful and enjoyable.

  • Laurine Mayer

    I made this for a dinner party, and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved the fresh, vibrant flavors. Will definitely make it again.

  • Hubert Schowalter

    The recipe was easy to follow, and the salad came out great. I used honey instead of sugar, and it worked perfectly.

  • Angelita Nader

    Absolutely delicious! The combination of sweet mango, savory prawns, and the spicy kick is perfect. I added a bit of sesame oil for extra flavor.
