How to Make Chunky Mango Sauce

  1. Dice 2 cups of ripe mangoes.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the diced mangoes, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, a pinch of nutmeg (optional), and 1 tablespoon of lime juice (optional).
  3. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mangoes are softened but still hold their shape.
  4. Remove from heat and gently mash the mangoes with a fork or potato masher to achieve your desired chunkiness. You can leave some larger pieces for extra texture.
  5. Taste and adjust sweetness or spices as needed.
  6. Serve warm or chilled. Enjoy as a side, topping for ice cream, pancakes, waffles, or yogurt!
