Notes
Korean red pepper powder, also called gochugaru, adds a mild, smoky heat and beautiful red color without overpowering the fresh flavors. Use Tajin seasoning instead, or omit as desired.
Optional additions:
- Diced avocado
- Finely diced red bell pepper for extra crunch
- A pinch of chili flakes or smoked paprika
- A teaspoon of maple or date syrup if the mango isn't very sweet
