Ingredients
- 150 g Mango puree
- 1 piece Habanero peppers — seeded and finely minced
- 100 g Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 1 tbsp Lime juice
- 1 tsp Agave nectar
- ¼ tsp Salt
Method
Carefully seed and finely mince the habanero pepper. Be sure to wear gloves when handling habaneros as they are extremely hot. Wash your hands thoroughly after handling.
In a blender or food processor, combine the mango puree, minced habanero, mayonnaise, honey, lime juice, agave nectar, and salt. Blend until completely smooth and well combined.
Taste carefully (the sauce is hot!) and adjust sweetness or heat as desired. Add more honey for sweetness or more habanero for heat. Remember that the heat will intensify as the sauce sits.
Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavours to develop. The sauce will keep for up to 5 days in the refrigerator.
Tips & Variations
- Start with half a habanero if you're unsure about the heat level – you can always add more.
- Fresh mango can be used instead of mango puree. Simply blend ripe mango until smooth.
- This sauce is fantastic as a glaze for grilled chicken or as a dipping sauce for spring rolls.
FAQs
- Can I make this less spicy?
- Absolutely! Reduce the amount of habanero pepper or substitute with a milder chilli like jalapeño. You can also add more mango puree to dilute the heat while maintaining the flavour.
- What can I use if I can't find mango puree?
- You can make your own by blending fresh or frozen mango until smooth, or substitute with mango juice (though it will be thinner) or even peach puree for a different fruit flavour.
