Picture collage depicting five amazing savoury mango recipes with a text overlayI bought my first mangoes of the season yesterday and devoured them in one sitting. Because for me, there is no other fruit that beats the juiciness and sweetness of mangoes. Now that the seasons finally arrived (I’ve been waiting the entire year for you, mangoes ❤), I’m going to be eating them in all shapes and forms.

And so I knew that I had to put together a list of my favourite savoury mango recipes for this season and arm you with everything you need to make the most of this amazing fruit.

I’m sure you’ve had mangoes in smoothies, juices, pies, tarts etc. but things can get real crazy when they are paired with the not so traditional savoury flavours. Here are some fusion, traditional and globally popular savoury mango recipes from me and my blogger friends to keep you cooking with my favorite fruit!

I hope you love these mangolicious recipes as much as I do!

This Raw Mango Fish Curry is also called Alleppey Fish Curry and is a recipe from Kerala. Its flavours are distinctly spicy, tangy and sour which makes this recipe a flavour bomb. Use any first white fish or an oily fish. Fish can also be substituted with squid or prawns. For a vegetarian version, use a fleshy, meaty vegetable like eggplant.
