MANGO SLAW



Mango Slaw image

There is absolutely nothing new about coleslaw, but there is something slightly intriguing about coleslaw with mangos. Often, when we think of coleslaw, we think of it as a side for fish and chips, barbecue, or heavy, mayonnaise-drenched cabbage. But just think about the cool, crunchy sweetness of the cabbage, carrots and mango, paired with the spicy kick of jerk chicken. What's a better combination? You also don't have to serve it as a side: It can be tucked into a sandwich or wrap. One of the best things about this recipe is that all the ingredients are readily available, and there are many shortcuts you can take, like using a bagged mix. Who wants to ruin their knuckles on a box grater, or break out the food processor?

Categories     main-dish

Time 7h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 36

2 racks baby back ribs (5 to 6 pounds total)
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 medium yellow onion, grated
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 cup ketchup
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup lightly-packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons tamarind concentrate paste
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Sweet and Spicy Kale Mango Slaw, recipe follows
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 clove garlic, grated
Freshly ground black pepper
5 cups shredded kale
3 cups shredded cabbage
1 mango, julienned
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1 Thai red chile, thinly sliced (seeds and membranes removed if you like less spice)
3 tablespoons chopped roasted, salted peanuts
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • For the ribs and rub: Tear two sheets of aluminum foil (large enough to fully wrap each rack of ribs) and place each on a rimmed baking sheet. Place a rack of ribs on top of each. Mix together the dark brown sugar, chili powder, curry powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and cayenne in a bowl. Reserve 1 tablespoon rub mixture. Evenly divide the remaining rub between the two racks of ribs and cover all surfaces of the fronts, backs and sides of each. Wrap tightly in the aluminum foil. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  • Bake the ribs 20 to 30 minutes. Reduce the heat to 250 degrees F. Continue to cook until the meat is tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • For the sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the ginger and the reserved spice rub and saute an additional minute to allow the spices to bloom. Add the ketchup, chicken broth, dark brown sugar, tamarind paste, Worcestershire sauce and garlic powder, and stir to combine. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the ribs from the oven and preheat the broiler to high.
  • Remove the ribs from the foil and place them on the baking sheets. Spoon 3 tablespoons of the liquid that has gathered in the foil into the sauce and stir to combine. Brush the ribs generously with a few tablespoons of the sauce. Place under the broiler, rotating the baking sheet if necessary, until the sauce begins to brown and thicken, 3 to 4 minutes. Repeat with the remaining ribs. Transfer the ribs to a cutting board and brush with the sauce once again. Serve the ribs with additional sauce and the Slaw.
  • For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, oil, vinegar, granulated sugar, ginger, salt, garlic and black pepper until emulsified.
  • For the slaw: In a large salad bowl, combine the kale, cabbage, mango, bell pepper, scallions, chile, peanuts, cilantro and mint.
  • Add the dressing to the slaw and toss to combine.

Tips:

  • When choosing mangoes for your slaw, look for ripe fruits that are slightly firm to the touch.
  • To easily slice the mango, cut it in half lengthwise and then use a sharp knife to score the flesh in a crosshatch pattern. Scoop out the cubes with a spoon.
  • For a refreshing and light slaw, use a combination of green and red cabbage. If you prefer a more robust flavor, add some shredded carrots or jicama.
  • To make the dressing, whisk together lime juice, honey, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. For a tangier dressing, add a splash of vinegar.
  • Toss the slaw with the dressing just before serving. This will help prevent the cabbage from wilting.

Conclusion:

Tangy mango slaw is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its bright colors and tropical flavors, this slaw is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
