Making Cuts in the Mango.

D.Schmidt
Hold the peeled mango firmly with one hand. Keeping your fingers out of harm's way, score the mango by making many light but deep gashes into the surface of the mango. Alternate vertical with diagonal strokes of the knife.

Tip: This is the method used in Thailand. However, it takes some practice to do it quickly. If you're in a hurry, you can also use a medium to large-size grater and grate the green mango as you would a carrot.
