  • Spatula

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by selecting ripe avocados and mangoes, which should yield slightly to gentle pressure. Carefully slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Dice the avocados and mangoes into small, bite-sized cubes. Place them in a mixing bowl, ensuring you have a colorful base for your salad.
  2. In a separate small bowl, add the fresh lime juice, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, chili flakes, and salt. Using a whisk or a fork, blend these ingredients together until they are well combined.
  3. Pour the freshly made dressing over the diced avocados and mangoes in the mixing bowl. Use a spatula to toss the salad gently, ensuring that the dressing coats each piece evenly without mashing the avocados.
  4. For the best freshness, serve the salad immediately on a colorful platter or individual bowls. If preparing in advance, store the avocado and mango separately from the dressing to avoid browning.
