MANGO AND TOMATO SALAD WITH BASIL CURRY DRESSING
A mortar and pestle are worthwhile investments for your kitchen, uniquely suited to grinding or pulverizing small quantities of spices and herbs. You can make this basil dressing in an electric chopper or with julienned basil, but it won't have the same beautiful green color.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, juicy mangoes for the best flavor.
- Roma tomatoes are a good choice for this salad, as they are less juicy and have a firmer texture.
- If you don't have basil on hand, you can substitute another fresh herb, such as cilantro or mint.
- To make the curry dressing, use a mild curry powder so that the flavor is not overpowering.
- If you like a spicier dressing, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
- Serve the salad immediately after it is made, as the tomatoes will start to release their juices and make the salad watery.
