- 2 tsp. fresh grated ginger

- 1 1/2 - 2 cups mango peeled and diced (2 large mangoes) // 360ml - 480ml

Instructions
- In a heavy-bottomed pot, like a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat.
- Sauté onions for 4 - 5 minutes to soften them, then add garlic and ginger, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Add diced mango and cook for one minute, stirring frequently to keep anything from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Add remaining ingredients to pot and stir to combine. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until reduced by about a third.
- Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- Using an immersion blender, purée the sauce in the pot until smooth.
