Simple Mango Ketchup image

This ketchup is great! Serve it with just about anything, pancakes, omelettes, potatoes, tempeh, and it will always compliment! Adapted from Mollie Katzen's Sunlight Cafe cookbook. Did you know mangoes are members of the sumac family and are related to cashews? In the tropical zones where they grow, mango groves are a real sight: the trees, with their thick umbrella of shiny leaves, form a true oasis-and the fruit grows like giant upside down lollipops on long stems, hanging down.

Steps:

  • Usng a sharp paring knife, carve the mango flesh from the pit, then remove and discard the peel. This might be a little messy. I always lick my fingers, shh, don't tell. Transfer the mango to a small saucepan, and mash it with a fork or a masher until pulpy, it doesn't have to be completely smooth,.
