Sweet & Sour Mango Ginger Sauce

Author: Flavelo
Sauces and Gravies Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes
This sauce brings the sun-drenched tropics to your plate. The natural, creamy sweetness of mango and the heat of ginger are a classic pair. During cooking, the mango melts down almost completely, forming a thick, fruity purée that becomes exciting and suitable for savory dishes thanks to the acidity of the vinegar.
