Thai Mango Coconut Vegetables with Rice

Thai Mango Coconut Vegetables with Rice 6

Today, I’m sharing one of my favourite spring/summer dishes. It’s light, healthy, easy to make, and includes one of my favourite fruits: mango.

This dish is customizable since you can add any ingredients that you like. I used white mushrooms, baby corn, zucchini, carrots, and mango. For some added protein, you could also add chicken, shrimp, or tofu.

The sauce that I used is the President’s Choice Thai Mango Coconut Cooking Sauce. I really like this sauce’s balance between sweet and spicy, but you can use any thai sauce that you can find.
