Okay, so it was my cousin's birthday and he was having a little picnic bash at the park. My brother told me to make a side dish.

it's not nice for you to post things like this when I can't eat it made by you *pouts*
What also is interesting is that many non-asians don't use these mangos (the yellow ones whose name starts with 'a')...they tend to prefer the red/green ones, the bigger ones. But then its because most haven't tried the yellow ones because once they do they seem to agree that it's very tasty and more mango-y!!
wish I had a food icon now, LOL!! XD have you tried the 5-minute chocolate cake yet?!

1 lime
50g sugar
4 tbsp fish sauce
5 mint leaves, chopped
1-2 small Thai chillies (bird eye chillies), chopped (and deseeded if you prefer it less spicy)
for extra flavour, but it's not really required.
As for the mangoes, I've eaten a lot of different kinds and it's really... -shrug- depending on the mango, you do different things. The Thai have like 5 different kinds of mangoes they use for several dishes; there's a ripe mango salad, green (raw) mango salad, served as is, with spiced dip, etc etc. I don't have favourites and have successfully made mango salad with different types of mangoes, whether Asian or non-Asian (I tried it with Mexican mangoes before and it still was okay, though not as good).
And no, I didn't try the cake yet. I forgot to buy ingredients for it x_X
