This easy Mango Coulis Recipe (Mango Sweet Sauce) comes together in under 30 minutes using just 3 ingredients. Top this super versatile sauce over overnight oats, cheesecakes, ice cream, or any other dessert of your choice.
Combine mangoes, sugar, and lemon juice in a pan and bring the mixture to a boil on medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Turn down to low heat and allow to simmer for 10 minutes. Stir at regular intervals using a wooden spoon or a silicone spatula while cooking.
Check for sweetness and tang, and add more sugar or lemon juice if needed.
Remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool down to room temperature.
Add the cooled mixture to a blender or a food processor and blend until smooth. You can also use an immersion blender to puree the mixture.
Note – If you like chunky sauce, then instead of blending, you can mash the mixture using a potato masher.
Store it in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days or freeze it for up to 6 months.

Notes
My recipe makes approximately 2 cups of mango sauce. You can easily half, double, or triple the recipe to suit your requirements.If using frozen mangoes, then thaw them before cooking.Add a splash of vodka, tequila, or white rum to the ready sauce to make an adult version.Do not leave the coulis unattended while cooking. It may scorch from the bottom.The sauce can be thinned with water or pineapple juice if desired.If desired, a teaspoon of cornstarch (mixed in 1 tablespoon water) can be used to thicken the sauce.If you want a finer coulis, pass the puree through a fine-mesh strainer.
