Spicy Cucumber Mango Skewers

INGREDIENTS:

• The juice of two small limes (plus extra for serving)

• The zest of one lime (plus extra for garnish)

• 2 Tablespoons/ 30 ml extra virgin olive oil

• 1-2 small Thai (or other similarly hot) chili pepper, seeds removed and finely chopped

• Coarse sea salt to taste

• 1 long seedless English cucumber, peeled and sliced

• 1 large ripe mango, peeled and cut into cubes

• 1-2 Tablespoons fresh chopped mint

• about 12 small Skewers

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Whisk lime juice, lime zest, oil, and chopped red pepper in a large shallow dish until combined. Season with salt to taste.

2. Add the cucumber and mango and gently toss to coat. Chill and marinate for at least ½ an hour to allow the flavors to develop.
