Recipe Instructions:
-
Prepare Mango: Start by peeling the mango, removing the flesh from the pit, and placing it in a blender. Ensure the mango is ripe for optimal sweetness and flavor.
-
Heat Curry Powder: In a small skillet, heat a drizzle of oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the curry powder, stirring constantly until it becomes fragrant and slightly toasted. This step enhances the flavor of the curry powder, infusing it into the sauce.
-
Combine Ingredients: Add the toasted curry mixture and fresh mint leaves to the mango in the blender.
-
Blend with Broth: With the blender running, gradually pour in the chicken broth until the mixture reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. The broth adds depth of flavor and helps to thin out the sauce to the desired thickness.
-
Add Lime Juice: Transfer the blended mixture to a bowl and squeeze in the juice of half a lime. Stir vigorously to incorporate the lime juice throughout the sauce.
-
Season to Taste: Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning, adding salt as needed to balance the flavors. Remember, a pinch of salt can enhance the natural sweetness of the mango and accentuate the spices.
