- In a blender, combine bird’s eye chilies, Fresno chili, garlic, sugar, salt, white vinegar, and water. Blend until the mixture forms a smooth, tangy liquid.
- Place the contents of the blender into a saucepan and bring to a boil.
- Pour the hot brine over the fruits and vegetables, ensuring they are evenly coated. Toss gently to combine.

Notes
- 🥭 Mango Mastery
- 🥭
- Select only firm unripe green mangoes for a crisp texture and tangy flavor. If unavailable, green papaya serves as a suitable substitute.
- 🌶️ Spice Odyssey
- 🌶️
- Exercise caution with chilies; adjust based on your spice tolerance. Adding heat later is easier than toning it down. For a post-mix adjustment, blend in gochugaru or Kashmiri red chili powder.
- ⏳ Marination Wizardry
- ⏳
- Allow the mixture to marinate for a minimum of 2 hours. Patience is key for the brine to penetrate dense fruits like green mango, ensuring a more robust taste.
