40 minutes
Aromatic mango sauce in Indian style is the embodiment of vibrant flavors of traditional Indian cuisine. Its roots go back centuries when spices and exotic fruits became the foundation of the region's gastronomic culture. Thick, rich, with a slight tang of lemon and sweetness of mango, this sauce adds an Eastern flair to any dish. Turmeric and ginger give it a warming character, while tomato paste adds depth of flavor. It pairs perfectly with rice, meat, and vegetables, enhancing their taste with subtle spicy notes. It can be used as a dip or added to stews. This sauce is a true journey into the world of Indian cuisine where sweetness meets spiciness and the aromas of spices unfold in every layer.
