Instructions:

Wash the buckwheat under cold water. Boil in salted water (1), then swell on low heat for twenty minutes until all the water is absorbed.

In the meantime, remove the peel from the mango, remove the flesh from the stone and cut into thin slices. Mix the sherry vinegar, water (2) and oil (1) and season with salt and pepper.

To finish, arrange the buckwheat decoratively on plates with the mango slices and a salad garnish of your choice, drizzle with salad dressing and season with a few turns of pepper.
