- 2 mangoes
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- squeeze lemon juice optional
Prepare the mangoes by dicing into small pieces and removing the peel. See above in the post for the 'hedgehog' method of preparing mango.
Add to your pot along with the sugar. Cook on a gentle heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally as it cooks down. Take off the heat and set aside to cool for a few minutes.
Transfer to a food processor and blend to a smooth sauce. This takes about 20 seconds.
Optional but recommended: if you like a very smooth sauce, you can strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove the fibrous aspect of the mango.
- If lemon or lime juice works for you, a teaspoon can be added to the coulis.
- Stir fairly frequently to help the coulis break down and to prevent it from sticking (or burning) to the bottom of the pot.
- I find that blending in a food processor is quicker and gives a smoother consistency, but if you prefer you can also use an immersion blender.
