Ingredients

Green mango slaw
Barbecued Pinoy pork

Method

1.Make mango slaw: Peel and de-seed mangoes. Cut into thin strips (this should yield about 2 cups). Mix mango and all remaining ingredients in medium bowl until well blended. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
2.Cut pork in half crosswise. Cut each piece lengthwise into 3mm thick strips. (Strips will be 2.5cm- 5cm wide).
3.Mix remaining ingredients in small bowl until well blended. Place pork in large re-sealable plastic bag. Add marinade; turn to coat well. Massage pork and marinade for 4-5 minutes. Refrigerate 1 hour.
4.Remove pork from marinade. Thread pork onto skewers. Discard any remaining marinade.
5.Barbecue skewers over medium-high heat for 3 minutes per side, or until pork is cooked through. Serve skewers with green mango slaw.

Banana ketchup, or banana sauce, is a popular Filipino condiment made from mashed bananas, sugar, vinegar and spices. It can be found at Asian grocers or specialty supermarkets. Green (unripe) mangoes provide a sour, crisp tartness to foods, such as chutneys, pickles and salads. If you prefer chicken, use 500g boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs in place of the pork.
