Mango and Tomato Salad with Basil Curry Dressing image

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.
