INSTRUCTIONS:
A mango has a thin pit running down the middle of the fruit. To avoid this, you’ll want to cut and remove the right and left cheeks of the mango.
Cutting the Cheeks: Place mango on a cutting board with the stem facing up. Insert a sharp knife about ¼-inch to the right of the midline. Starting from the top of the fruit, cut all of the way down to the bottom. Repeat this process with the left side of the mango. You should have 3 slices of mango at this point (2 cheeks and 1 midsection with the pit.)
Dicing the Flesh: Using a smaller pairing knife, hold the mango in your non-dominant hand and make vertical incisions into the flesh of the mango. Pay careful attention not to cut all of the way through into the skin. Turn the mango 90 degrees and make vertical cuts that intersect the previous ones in a crosswise fashion. Repeat this step with the other mango cheek.
Cut, peel, or spoon Flesh: You can remove the mango pieces by either using a paring knife, your thumb, or a spoon. Place your tool of choice where the flesh meets the skin and cut/push/scoop it off.
Extra Mango around the Pit: There may still be some edible mango left around the pit. To get to this, place your paring knife into the skin of the midsection piece and carefully cut between the flesh and the skin to remove it. Cut and remove any additional mango flesh until the pit is all that’s left.
Removing the Pit: Cut and remove any additional mango flesh until the pit is all that’s left.
Alternative Method (Vegetable Peeler)
There’s another method you can use if you’re scared to hold the mango in your hand while using a paring knife.
Peel Skin with a Vegetable Peeler: Using a vegetable peeler, remove all of the skin from the mango.
Cutting the Cheeks: With the stem side facing up, remove the right and left cheeks from the mango as instructed above.
Dicing the Flesh: Place mango cheeks flat-side down on a cutting board and dice or finely dice to your desired size.
Extra Mango around the Pit: Remove any of the remaining edible flesh around the pit and dice to your desired size.
RECIPE NOTES:
One medium-sized mango weighs roughly 0.75 pounds or 335 grams.

You're welcome.
I 💙 🥭 but I don't know how to pick out a good one well the best ones. I don't know how to cut one either.
Glad u made this video. Thanks.
It took forever for you to answer the question
TY I wasnt sure how to do this now I know two ways
Great video. I wish I had watched b4 slicing my 1st mango. Next time will be better prepared for slipping and sliding. 😂
Well done video! Perfectly explained… I actually dice my avocado that same way ( yes, i hold and cut it in my hand and I’m careful not to cut through ! 😃 ) but i didn’t realize you could do the same to the mango! Thanks for explaining so nicely!
Yes! It's super similar to how you cut the avocado - just make sure the very tip of that knife isn't too sharp!!
The mango was very tasty apart from when I tried cutting it into 3. I cut my self really really bad and got blood all over my fridge, cabanit, chair, door, and mango 🥭😭
Definitely the. Best looking mangoer technique
Very thorough covers a couple ways to peel and dice a mango, and how to tell if they are ripe. Could be shorter for me, but that's just me.
Thanks so much for the feedback - glad you found it helpful 😀 And thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!
You don't need a peeler to peel a mango.
Just slice all around pole to pole -- rotate 90° -- repeat.
Remove the 4 pieces of skin with your hands.
Thank you we have just used the knife method exellant 😊🇬🇧
Thankyou for showing me how to cut mangos. I'm trying to eat healthy food and I got some mango 🥭 but I really didn't know how to cut them.
Very helpful!! Thank you
You're very welcome, Paulette! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment :)
Holding it in your hand while cutting is a (very) bad idea... Apart from that, thanks for the insight.
Yes, I have definitely learned this in the last few years since filming the video!
I always cut tomatoes slices and alot of other fruits in my hand with no issues. Its called having good knife 🔪 skills. But its common sense as well. Whatever you are comfortable with doing while handling a sharp knife.
Everyone is a critic
@@catherineharris27 Yes!! Grown-ups can do this. Great tip & I've used it several times since!
@@evolvingtable Folks should just say "Thanks for great tips!"
Very helpful. Excellent 👌 video. Thanks 🌺
Good tips....appreciated. One suggestion.....try to avoid so much vocal fry.
She throwing me just cut the dam mango
I've eaten so many mangos and had no idea people didn't ear the skin.
Perfecto! Muchas gracias
Super helpful video! Thanks so much! Perfect for helping me make my mango salsa!
Well done.
Liked and subscribed, thanks!
What is she using to hold up her cutting boards in the background? Is that a triangular stone, or a piece of wood? Either way it's beautiful. Can anyone tell me where I could find one?
Thanks!! So that’s actually a wooden cutting board made out of pecan wood by one of our friends. It’s such a beautiful piece of art!
Mango lady: it gets a little slippery
My mom: "JUST A LITTLE!!"
Good video! Thank you

You can always just lay them flat in a freezer ziploc bag. Takes that 2 step freezer process down to one
Yes, I use this process, saves time n no washing of plates or a sheet pan. ( Do the same w pineapples ,)
Is there a short version?
Short attention span? Come on only 5 mins and I think she covered everything :)
it gets shorter if you use your mouse or finger to fast forward or use the speed button for faster video. Since you think you are another Francis Ford Coppola in the making I'm surprised you couldn't figure that out
helpful thanks
😊
Sounds
London Brazil 😂😂😂
Inedible skin? Research should be done before trying to educate other ppl. The skin is edible.
With the effect as poison ivy if your allergic lol
Thin and edible or thin inedible? 🤔
Good info, but the vocal fry is so tiresome. Why do it?!?!
People do eat the skin. My Asian friend said it’s the best in a spicy sauce.
Try my way. 💟
You could just cut it on the counter
Why 5 min long
Why not
So many hand gestures, i was getten dizzy..
Too damn much talking.
H:
Okay recommendation but the first 1/2 of video face time yakking is unnecessary waste of time.
Thank you 😊
You're very welcome!
