My Personal Story with Mango and Chilli Sauce
When I first tried mango and chilli sauce, it was during a barbecue with friends. One of them brought a homemade jar. At first, I was unsure if mango would taste good in a spicy sauce. But when I dipped grilled chicken into it, I was surprised. The sweetness hit first, followed by the heat that lingered.
Since then, I have used it in sandwiches and even with roasted sweet potatoes. This story is common among people who try it for the first time. They expect it to be either too sweet or too hot, but the balance keeps them coming back.
