Red Oakleaf & Mango Prawn Salad
Sweet mango, juicy grilled prawns, and deep burgundy Red Oakleaf — built for colour as much as flavour, ready in under 15 minutes.
Sweet mango, juicy grilled prawns, and deep burgundy Red Oakleaf — this salad is built for colour as much as flavour. The dressing is sharp with lime and lightly sweet, and everything comes together in under 15 minutes.
Method
- Grill the prawns. Season prawns with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a pan over high heat. Cook prawns 2 minutes per side until pink and slightly charred. Set aside.
- Make the dressing. Whisk together lime juice, fish sauce, honey, chilli, and garlic.
- Build the salad. Arrange Red Oakleaf on a large platter. Scatter mango, avocado, and red onion across the top.
- Add the prawns. Place grilled prawns over the salad while still warm.
- Dress and finish. Drizzle dressing over everything. Top with fresh herbs and toasted coconut flakes. Serve immediately.
Aeroveg tip: The deep red colour of Red Oakleaf indicates high anthocyanin content — more antioxidants per bite. Pair with mango for a Vitamin C boost that also helps with iron absorption.
