By Helen Li

  1. Hold the mango vertically and slice the mango on each side, close to the seed.
  2. Take one of the mango halve and hold it firmly in your palm. Make 2-3 horizontal cuts, and 3-4 vertical cuts. The mango should look like a grid.
  3. Using both hands, have the tips of your fingers at the underside of the mango and your thumbs at the sides. Invert the mango.
  4. Convenient, squares should pop out and be ready to be devoured.
  5. Enjoy!
