Instructions
Prepare Mangoes: Peel the mangoes. Slice the flesh off the seeds and chop into very small pieces for quicker cooking.
Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, add the mangoes, water, turmeric, cumin, sugar, salt, garlic, and wiri wiri peppers. Stir well to combine.
Cook: Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered for 40 minutes or until the mango pieces are soft and breaking apart.
Blend: Use a hand blender or potato masher to smooth out the mixture to your desired consistency. Leave some texture if you prefer it chunky.
Taste & Adjust: Taste and adjust the seasoning. Add more salt for flavor, sugar to sweeten, or a splash of vinegar if a sharper sour note is desired.
Cool and Store: Let cool, then store in a clean glass jar. Refrigerate for up to 1 week.
