Notes
To use frozen mango: You'll need about 2½ to 3 cups of frozen mango chunks. Let them sit at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes, until just soft enough to cut, then chop into smaller pieces (they're much easier to chop partially frozen than fully thawed). Once fully thawed, drain off any liquid and pat dry with a paper towel so your slaw doesn't get watery. Thawed mango is softer than fresh, so fold it in gently, ideally just before serving (leftovers will still taste great, just with a softer texture).• If you're dairy-free, check the ingredient list carefully for any hidden milk products.
