Instructions

1 ✓

Peel the mango, slice the flesh off the pit, and chop.

Tip: Choose soft, honey-sweet mangoes. If hard, the sauce will be tart and gritty.
2 ✓

Grate the garlic as finely as possible.

Tip: For raw sauces, it is critical that garlic is a paste, not chunks, to avoid unpleasant biting experiences.
3 ✓

Add mango, tahini, lime juice, honey, garlic, ginger, and salt to the blender.

Tip: The tahini oil and mango fibers will form an emulsion.
4 ✓

Start blending, drizzling in the water slowly.

Tip: Water amount depends on mango juiciness. Aim for a thick soup consistency.
5 ✓

Blend for at least 1 minute until completely smooth and aerated.

Tip: Incorporating air makes the texture lighter.
6 ✓

Taste and add salt if needed. Salt highlights the mango sweetness.

Tip: Flavors should be round: sweet, sour, salty, and the slight bitterness of sesame all at once.
7 ✓

Refrigerate for 15 minutes before serving.

Tip: Resting allows fibers to swell and the sauce to thicken.

Recipe FAQ

Can I use frozen mango?
Yes, but thaw completely and include the juice, as that holds flavor.
Why is it bitter?
The tahini might be rancid, or you juiced the white pith of the lime. Always taste tahini alone before using!
