How do you cut a mango?

Before cutting a mango, you first want to check to see if the fruit is ripe, yet still firm. If your mango is overripe, it will be more difficult to cut into pieces and will turn mushy.

  1. In the center of your mango you will find a pit. You want to cut along the sides of this pit. Hold your mango on the side with the stem facing down. Using a sharp knife, cut your mango from the top down one side of the pit.
  2. Repeat to the other sides.
  3. Next, slice the mango flesh lengthwise and then back again widthwise. Try not to cut through your peel as best you can. 
  4. You should be able to easily pull out the cut pieces, or you can spoon them out if you prefer.
