Mango and Pear Smoothie with Buckwheat Flakes
Beverages • Pan-Asian
Description
If you don't like a sour smoothie, stick to half a lemon. The balance of flavors also depends on the type of mango you use. If it's Brazilian green-red, you can use less lemon; if it's Thai yellow, use more.
Ingredients
- Mango 1 piece
- Lemon 1 piece
- Oranges 3 pieces
- Coconut Milk 10 fl oz
- Buckwheat Groats 5 fl oz
- Pears 1 piece
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Peel the mango and remove the pit. Cut it into medium pieces.
Step 2
Juice 1 lemon and 3 oranges.
Step 3
Soak the buckwheat flakes in the juice for 10–15 minutes, then transfer them to a blender, as they expand significantly in volume.
Step 4
Depending on the type of pear you use, do the following: if the pear is very hard, it's better to juice it if possible; if it's soft, remove the core, chop it coarsely, and add it to the blender with the mango.
Step 5
Add 240 ml of coconut water and blend on high speed for about 5 minutes.
Step 6
If the smoothie is too thick, add more coconut water and blend again to reach the desired consistency.
