November 29, 2020 By Adam Leave a Comment

Mangoes in tamarind chili sauce or a Whole Foods way to get your fruits and you can adapt this to make it as spicy or sweet as you like.Mangos in Tamarind Chile Purée or Sauce are a super easy way to get some whole food sweets.  One of the best things about Thai recipes is that they are often old and traditional.  That means less processed ingredients and more whole food ingredients.

Mod also uses this recipe to to make the same thing she uses for Tiger Cry steak which also contains tamarind and Thai chili peppers.  You don’t have to just eat this with mangos either.  You can dip pineapple, apples, Asian pears or whatever your heart desires.  

  • Thai Chili Dipping Sauce, prik glua or substitute tahin
  • 2 tbsp thinly sliced shallot
  • 2½ tbsp tamarind concentrate
  • ¼ Truvia
  • ½ tsp Thai chili powder
  • 1 thinly chopped green onion
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • 2 tsp Golden Mountain seasoning soy sauce

From this recipe. 

Tiger Cry – Thai Style Steak

Store bought chili dip

A lady we met here in the Houston area makes a more Mexican version of the same thing.  It’s like convergent evolution of foods.  You have a similar country, climate and plant wise, and you see similar recipes evolve.  This one is so similar, in fact, you can just switch them out.  

Her’s is more fruity than the Tiger Cry version though.  I love them both.  You won’t regret it either way you go.  Here are mangos around her dip, which is what we actually used tonight.  You can find her at this Instagram account, PicaQueen, and support a small startup that deserves to go big.  She did not give me her dip, I paid for it and she didn’t ask for my help, I just believe in karma.
