Provided by Roopa Gulati

Categories Side dish

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

200g fine green beans, trimmed
3 passion fruits
1-2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
10g ginger, peeled and finely grated
½ -1 red chilli deseeded and finely chopped, depending on how much heat you prefer
squeeze of lime juice, to taste
1kg mangoes
1 tbsp chopped coriander
1 tbsp mint leaves

Steps:

Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil over a high heat and cook the green beans for 2 mins until just tender. Drain and rinse under cold running water to halt the cooking process and retain the vibrant colour. Pat dry with kitchen paper and set aside.
Halve the passion fruits, scoop the pulp into a small pan and bring to a simmer over a low heat. Cook for 5 mins until the pulp has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat and press the pulp through a sieve into a small bowl, discarding the seeds.
Whisk 1 tbsp honey into the passion fruit purée, followed by the oil, ginger, chilli and lime juice. Season and taste - you might need to add a little more honey or lime juice. Aim for a balance of sweet, tart and acidic.
Slice down through the mangoes along both sides of the stone so you end up with two 'cheeks'. Using a tablespoon, scoop the flesh from the skin and cut into 3cm chunks. Scrape and roughly chop any fleshy bits from the stones.
Transfer the mango flesh to a shallow serving dish, drizzle with 3 tbsp of the dressing, then gently spoon over the green beans. Stir the coriander into the remaining dressing and pour it over the beans, then scatter with mint and serve.

Use ripe fruits: Overripe fruits are sweeter and have a better flavor. They also blend more easily.
Add some greens: A handful of spinach, kale, or other greens will add a boost of nutrients to your smoothie.
Use a variety of fruits: This will give your smoothie a more complex flavor and texture.
Don't be afraid to experiment: Try different combinations of fruits, vegetables, and other ingredients to find your perfect smoothie recipe.
Add some healthy fats: A tablespoon of chia seeds, flaxseeds, or almond butter will add healthy fats and make your smoothie more filling.
Use unsweetened almond or coconut milk instead of dairy milk: This will make your smoothie lighter and healthier.
