Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups (400 grams, 14.12 ounces) mango fresh or frozen
  • 4 tablespoons white sugar or monkfruit sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice or lemon juice
  • 4 tablespoons water

Instructions
 

  • Place mango, sugar, lime juice, and water in a small pot. Bring to a boil over low to medium heat. Stir occasionally (see note 1).
  • Boil the mixture for about 5 minutes, stir the mixture so that it does not burn (see note 2).
  • Reduce the heat to low. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring often. Turn off heat. (see note 3).
  • Allow to cool completely before storing in a sterilised jar or glass container or serve warm.

Notes

This mango compote makes about 1 ½ cups (240 grams, 8.47 ounces).
Sterilise your jar by pouring boiling water over the outside and inside of the jar.
  1. Frozen mango can take a bit longer to bring to the boil. Fresh mango will need to be peeled and cut into cubes or small pieces before you add it to your pot.
  2. If you find the mixture rises when you are boiling it, slightly reduce the heat and stir.
  3. The compote will thicken as it cools.
