This Mango Salad Dressing is one of my favorite homemade salad dressings.

I asked myself before how can I eat salad on a daily basis? If not daily, then at least thrice a week. The answer is to make your own salad dressing. And yes, I’ve been eating salad for some time now. Proud of me? lol

This is the third salad dressing I made. The first one was so good, too, and I made it several times already. The second one was amazing; the recipe needs a little tweaking, though. I will share them with you once I made them again. For now, let’s talk about this Mango Salad Dressing.

This salad dressing is made up of mango, garlic, maple syrup, rice vinegar, coriander, chili flakes, salt, and extra virgin olive oil. Mostly, salad dressings require only few ingredients and can be ready in no time. However, this dressing needs a little effort from you which is the “slowly pouring of olive oil”. If you are a mango lover like me, I don’t think it will be an issue.

What are your favorite veggies and/or fruits, or meat to include in your salad? I love mixed lettuce leaves, kernel corn, tomatoes, and fried chicken breasts. In this salad, I added chopped mangoes, too. I super loved it!

Overall, the salad and the dressing tasted amazing! I would love to have this on a weekly basis if sweet mangoes stay all-year round.

STORING THE MANGO SALAD DRESSING

I usually use a sterilized jar so the salad dressing would last longer. I did some readings and most homemade salad dressing lasts up to 1 week in the fridge. The salad dressings I made lasted up to 10 days. I haven’t tried storing a salad dressing at room temperature. I always keep them in the fridge.

NOTES:

Pick a sweet mango.
If food processor is not available, you can mash the ingredients without the oil until it is pureed. After that, pour olive oil to the pureed mixture very slowly while whisking.
I use a sterilized jar to store the salad dressing.
