Place the
mango narrow side down on a chopping board.
Cut off a
thick lengthways slice, keeping the knife as close to the stone as
possible.
Turn the
mango round and repeat on the other side.
Cut off
the flesh adhering to the stone and scoop out the flesh from the
mango slices.
To make a
"hedgehog", prepare the mango as above and score the flesh on each
thick slice with criss-cross lines at 1 cm/ 1/2 inch intervals,
taking care not to cut through the skin.
Fold the
mango halves inside out and serve.
When the
mango is folded inside out, the cubes can be cut off using a sharp
knife, if desired.
