This salad is a true flavor bomb! You add a little amazing Filipino shrimp paste, coconut flakes, and Thai chili to tart unripe mango. It's a great complement to fatty meats, pork ribs, or even a burger. "The unusual flavor of this salad is also amazing with green apples—the tarter the better," says Dale Talde.
