Ingredients
2
Piece
Green Mangoes
*see Notes
2
Chili Peppers
fresh, *see Notes
3
Cloves
Garlic Cloves
chopped fine
1
Tablespoon
Cilantro Fresh
or Culantro if available
½
Teaspoon
Salt
or to taste
Instructions
Peel your mango and cut the mango pulp from the seed core into smaller pieces or dices.
Rinse your chili pepper and cut into thin slices. Discard seeds if you want o reduce heat. You may want to use gloves when cutting chilies.
Peel garlic and chop fine. Chop rinsed and tapped dry cilantro (or culantro) fine.
Place all ingredients into a bowl and season with salt.
Combine the fresh ingredients at let rest for at least 15 minutes so that the ingredients can marinate.
Best served cooled. I like my mango chow with crackers as a snack.
Notes
Use semi, near ripe, green-skinned, mangoes.
How much chili peppers to add depends on the pepper variety and your heat preferences.
I use jalapenos and similar. A true Caribbean Trinidad mango chow will call for super hot habaneros or 7 pot chili peppers.
