Balmain Bugs Shrimp With Mango Sauce

    Simply amazing! I found the posted amounts gave a perfect consistency and loved the sweet flavour of a nice ripe mango with just the hint of sour from the lemon and tang of the chili sauce. Being an Aussie used Balmain Bugs but the substitutes listed would be great as well, using prawns / shrimps though I'd stick with the very large U6 or U8 size (less than 6 or 8 per pound) that have a similar taste to the bugs. Given the sauce can be made in advance and refrigerated and all the options can be cooked on a BBQ it would also make a great summer time outdoor meal as well.
