Equipment

  • 1 Blender

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups mango juice I used one large mango
  • 1 cup pineapple juice I used about 2 cups pineapple chunks
  • 1 small onion
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 teaspoon- 2 tablespoons red pepper flakes
  • ¼ cup agave nectar
  • Juice of two limes
  • Three tablespoons cornstarch + 1 cup water
  • 1/4 Teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Add mango, pineapple, onion, garlic to your blender and blend until smooth. Strain if you do not have a high-powered blender to avoid chunks in your sauce.
  • Pour this liquid in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and allow the sauce to come to a boil.
  • Add salt and agave nectar then whisk cornstarch in cold water and then pour this into the saucepan.
  • Reduce to a low flame and allow this to simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Finish the sauce off by adding lime juice for a zesty flavor.
  • Cool the sauce completely and store in a sterilized glass jar.

Notes

  1. You can use the skin of a scotch bonnet pepper, habanero peppers, or ground cayenne pepper Instead of red pepper flakes 
  2.  I used fresh mango juice to make this sauce, but you can use frozen or fresh mangoes.
  3. I used fresh pineapple juice, but you can use frozen or fresh pineapples.
  4. If you’re looking for a sugar-free option, you simply need to use very ripe mangoes as they are sweeter. Blend them in a small amount of water in a high-powered blender.
