This was a big hit in my house. I added a few whole peppercorns for an extra peppery boost, and my husband really liked that. But the mango puree was the real star of this recipe. It had a perfect blending of both sweet and savory tastes. Yum! My kids don't like fully pureed sauces, so I hand mashed it and left a few small mango chunks and they seemed to like that, as did we adults. Like another reviewer, I served the pork and mango puree over rice, and it made a nice presentation. Thanks for sharing your recipe, Chef Jean. Made for Fall PAC 2011.Reply

This made a really great meal. I served it with seasoned rice and salad. The mango sauce is delicous and a great accompaniment to this dish. It would probably go good with with chops and chicken as well. I did cut back on the pepper here but that was just personal preference. I used some red wine (zharaz) because I didn't have any sherry. This was great thanks for posting.Reply
