Ingredients
- 1 Mango
Instructions
- Cut the sides off the mango, working around the pit in the center.
How to peel the mango using a pint glass:
- Set a mango half upright along the rim of a pint glass and align right where the peel meets the skin. Slide it down to separate the peel from the mango flesh.
- You can use the peeled mango half for smoothies, or you can dice the peeled mango into cubes.
How to cut the mango with a knife:
- Use a knife to score cubes into one of the mango halves, carefully going all the way down to the peel but not through it.
- Invert the mango so the cubes separate out a bit.
- Use a small paring knife to cut each cube off the mango peel.
How to cut the sides of the mango
- Cut along the sides of the mango that are left after taking the large halves off, being careful to avoid the pit.
- Use a paring knife to separate the peel from the flesh, holding it flat on the cutting board.
- Slice the strips of mango into cubes.
Equipments used:
Notes
- One small-medium sized mango yields about 1 cup of diced mango. Mangos come in all different kinds of sizes- I used a jumbo one in the photos. It yielded about 2 cups.
- Use the diced mango to top yogurt parfaits, add to smoothies, in a Mango Quinoa Salad, or in Mango Salsa.
