Meanwhile, peel the mango, remove the flesh from the fibrous core. Peel the ginger, clean and wash the chili. Blend the mango, ginger and chili with an electric food processor. Season with remaining soy sauce and lime juice; if desired thin the consistency with a little water (2–3 tbsp).

Coat each skewer first in flour, then in egg, and finally in the ground peanuts.
