Mango and Grilled Shrimp Salad

Selada Mangga Udang Bakar

This dish perfectly represents the best features of Indonesian cuisine. Indonesia is
famous for its many varieties of luscious mangos as well as an abundance of fresh,
succulent seafood. Here, I offer a more convenient method of “grilling” the shrimp. If
you have enough time and an outdoor grill, you can grill the shrimp the old fashioned
way, which will yield a smoky flavor. Sweet mangos and juicy shrimp combine the
gritty dark brown sugar, fragrant toasted coconut, and a dash of heat from the chili

peppers.
