Yield]: about 2 1/2 cups
Ingredients
- 1 cup natural olive oil mayonnaise such as Hellmann’s or Spectrum
- 1/2 cup fresh cocktail sauce I used Whole Foods store-made
- 1 large green onion sliced (green and white parts)
- 1 cup chopped ripe mango about 1 large
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or to taste
- 1/8 teaspoon coarse pepper or to taste
- Hot sauce to taste
Instructions
- With a sharp knife, cut away skin from mango; cut into chunks. Coarsely puree in food processor or blender.
- Add remaining ingredients to food processor or blender; process until just creamy. Do not over –blend or mixture will be too thin. Taste; adjust amounts of lemon, salt, pepper and hot sauce as desired. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
Notes
Make Ahead and Storage Tips: mayonnaise may be stored up to 3 days; cover and refrigerate. Stir before serving.
The flavor of this mayonnaise may deepen over time. So be cautious about adding too much extra lemon and seasoning (especially hot sauce) even if tastes a bit mild to you at first.
