Ingredients

2 tablespoons safflower oil 

1 medium onion, finely chopped (1 1/2 cups) 

4 cloves garlic, minced (2 tablespoons) 

Coarse salt 

1/3 cup ketchup 

3 cups diced mango (from 2 to 3 large peeled, pitted mangoes) 

1/4 cup sugar 

2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar, plus more to taste 

1 small Scotch bonnet or habanero chile (seeds removed, if less heat is desired), finely chopped (1 1/2 teaspoons) 

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 

Preparation

Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high. Add onion, garlic, and 1 teaspoon salt; cook until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in ketchup, mangoes, sugar, vinegar, and 3/4 cup water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, partially covered and stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced and mangoes are very soft, about 30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.

Puree mango mixture, chile, and Worcestershire in a blender until smooth. Season with salt and more vinegar; let cool completely. Sauce can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 1 week, or frozen up to 3 months.
