Mint & Mango Marinated Zucchini Spaghetti

Recipe and photo from Green Kitchen Stories again. This is a great SIDE dish.

Mint & Mango Marinated Zucchini Spaghetti
Serves 4 as a side dish, or 2 as a dinner
When we were in Thailand we bought a julienne like slicer. They use it for green mango salad but it works just as perfect for slicing a zucchini. You can find similar slicers on Amazon or try julienne’s big brother, the vegetable spiral slicer.
Raw Spaghetti
2 Zucchinis
Wash the zucchinis and slice them with whatever tool you have (read above).
Mint & Mango Sauce
1 mango medium size
4 tbsp olive oil (add more if you like)
15 leaves fresh mint
1 inch fresh red chili
2 inches fresh ginger
a pinch of salt & peppera handful of green pea sprouts and pistachio nuts, for garnish
Peel and remove the stone from the mango, add all ingredients in a mixer and mix until smooth.
Pour the mango mint marinade over the zucchini spaghetti and work it in by hand. Arrange the spaghetti on the plates and garnish with sprouts and chopped pistachio nuts.
