Preparing the Vegetables
- Prepare the mango by peeling it with a vegetable peeler or sharp knife. Lay it on its side and cut off the tail end. Hold the mango upright and slice off the two fleshy sides, avoiding the pit. You'll have two oval-shaped pieces. Take one mango half and cut thin, even slices lengthwise, aiming for slices about ½ inch thick. Stack several mango slices on top of each other and then cut them into ½ inch strips. Finally, turn the stack of mango strips and cut across them to create diced mango for your salad.

- Place your prepared vegetables and herbs in a large bowl.

Notes
- Choose ripe but firm mangoes and avocados for the best texture and flavor.
- Adjust the amount of red chili according to your preference for spiciness.
- Make sure to toss the salad gently to avoid mashing the avocado.
- If making the salad ahead of time, store the dressing separately and toss with the salad just before serving to keep it crisp and fresh.
