Recipe Notes
Additional Tips
- For maximum flavor and the right texture, use slightly underripe (firm) mangoes, which provide the ideal tang and won't turn mushy when mixed with the rice.
- To enhance crunch and fragrance, roast the peanuts separately until golden and add them at the end, just before serving, so they retain their crispness.
- If preparing ahead, keep the grated mango separate and add it to the rice just before serving to maintain its fresh, zesty bite and prevent the dish from becoming soggy.
- For an extra burst of color and subtle sweetness, toss in a handful of pomegranate seeds or finely chopped fresh coriander as a garnish before serving.
