Entertain at home: Marvellous with mango on the menu

Sticky Cajun chicken and mango skewers

Toss raw chicken wings in Cajun spice with honey and mango juice. Grill on the braai or under an oven grill until crispy and slightly blackened. Serve on skewers with mango slices and lime wedges. Ideal for a summer braai!

Exotic mayo-less mango coleslaw

Toss together grated carrot, shredded red and white cabbage, and chunks of mango. Then whisk up some mango juice, olive oil, 1 chopped chilli and sesame seeds. Pour the dressing over the salad, and garnish with micro herbs – the perfect summertime salad.

Delicious dessert mango-misu (low-fat mango tiramisu)

Soften finger biscuits by soaking them in mango juice. Whisk low fat or fat-free cream cheese together with low-fat vanilla yoghurt. In a pretty bowl, alternate between layers of biscuit, sliced mangoes and the cream cheese mixture. Finish off with a garland of fresh berries and mint leaves. A delicious ending for any self-respecting braai!
