Notes
If you’re not sure how to peel and slice a mango, here’s a helpful guide on
how to cut a mango
.
If your mango is a
little soft and juicy
, it might be difficult to cut, so just be careful with your knife.
Make sure you
buy fresh and ripe mangoes.
If they’re hard, you’ll need to wait for them to ripen.
Keep your mango slices large enough
so they stay on the skewers and don’t fall through the grates on the grill.
Don’t skip the oil.
Brushing oil on the mangoes and the grates helps prevent the mangoes from sticking to the grill.
Make sure your grill is set to medium heat. If you grill over high heat,
the mango slices may burn.
You only need to grill for 2-3 minutes per side. If you grill for longer, the
mango slices may start to get mushy
.
