Method

Step-by-Step Instructions for Sweet and Spicy Mango Sauce

Gather all ingredients: mango, olive oil, lemon juice, ketchup, Dijon mustard, onion, garlic, maple syrup, sea salt, black pepper, and habanero peppers. Blend on high for about 1 minute until smooth.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or habanero if necessary. Blend again to incorporate changes.
Transfer the sauce to a serving bowl for immediate use, or refrigerate in an airtight container for fresh use up to 3-4 days.
To extend shelf life, simmer blended sauce in a saucepan for 5-7 minutes. This increases acidity and flavor.
Allow the sauce to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container for proper storage.
