Salmon with Mango Rice

ᛎ Jump to recipe

Mango and fish you say? I thought I would play around with these flavours and see if they worked before I shared this recipe and I must say that is was the most delicious umami of flavour in a bowl. I remember sitting on the dinner table and my Italian husband looking at this saying “you gotta be kidding right?” Next minute he was serving himself a second plate. Go on then…
