This vegan mango curry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The curry is made with a variety of spices, including cumin, coriander, and red chili powder, which give it a flavorful and aromatic taste. The mango adds a touch of sweetness and acidity to the curry, which balances out the spices perfectly. The curry can be served over rice or with flatbread.
I first came up with this recipe when I was living in Thailand. I was inspired by the many delicious curries that I ate there, and I wanted to create a vegan version that I could make at home. I experimented with different ingredients and spices until I came up with this recipe, which is now one of my favorites. I love the combination of the sweet mango and the spicy curry, and I think it's the perfect dish for a summer meal.
