Ingredients
3 unripe mangoes (about 300g each)
2 spring onions
1 long red chilli
5mm piece of fresh root ginger
2 cloves of garlic
3 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons gochugaru (Korean red chilli powder)
Directions
Peel each mango and remove the stone. Cut the mango flesh into 2.5cm cubes and place in a large bowl.
Trim the spring onions at both ends and finely slice them. Roughly chop the red chilli. Peel the ginger and garlic, then finely mince both.
Add the sliced spring onions, chopped chilli, minced ginger, and minced garlic to the mango cubes. Pour the fish sauce and sprinkle the gochugaru over the mixture.
Mix thoroughly until all mango pieces are evenly coated with the seasonings and aromatics.
Transfer the mixture to a large, clean container with a secure lid. Leave uncovered or loosely covered at room temperature for 3 days to ferment.
After 3 days of fermentation, seal the container and transfer to the refrigerator. Store until ready to serve.
