How to Make Mango Preserve
- Peel, pit, and dice 900g (approximately 4) ripe mangoes into 1-inch pieces.
- In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the diced mangoes, 700g granulated sugar, 50g grated fresh ginger, the juice of 1 lime, and 1 vanilla pod (tied in a cheesecloth bag).
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to dissolve the sugar.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently for 45-55 minutes, or until the preserve reaches setting point (a small amount placed on a chilled plate wrinkles when pushed with a finger).
- Remove the vanilla pod (and cheesecloth bag).
- Carefully ladle the hot preserve into sterilized jars, leaving a small headspace.
- Wipe the jar rims clean, seal tightly, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to ensure preservation.
- Allow the jars to cool completely before storing in a cool, dark place. Enjoy!
