Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 6

Ingredients

3 firm-ripe mangoes (2 1/4 pounds total)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Standing mango upright, cut two lengthwise slices, each about 1/2 inch thick, from a broad side of mango pit. Cut remaining broad side and remaining mangoes in same manner. (There should be a total of 12 slices, 6 of them end pieces.) Discard pits and reserve any remaining mango for another use.

    Step 2

    Prepare grill.

    Step 3

    Working with end pieces only, score flesh in a cross-hatch pattern, being careful not to cut through skin, and grill, cut side down, on a well-oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until golden brown, about 2 minutes. (Alternatively, mango may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat in same manner.) Transfer mango as grilled to a platter. When end pieces of mango are cool enough to handle, push from skin side to turn inside out. Grill remaining mango slices about 2 minutes on each side.
