1/4 cup Sherry, dry
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
1/2 cup Tomato ketchup (organic or use tomato sauce)
2 tsp Chipotle chiles in adobo sauce (finely chopped)
3/4 cup Water
1 pinch Salt (to taste)
1 dash Black pepper (to taste)
1 mango Mango (mango salsa - ripe, peeled and diced small)
1 cup diced Pineapple (mango salsa)
1/2 cup Jicama (mango salsa - cut into 1/4 dice)
1/2 cup chopped Red bell pepper (mango salsa - diced small)
2 tbsp Cilantro (coriander) (mango salsa - finely chopped)
1/2 whole lime(s) Lime juice (fresh) (mango salsa - juice from 1/2 a lime)
1/4 tsp Cumin (mango salsa)

Instructions


Heat ghee in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 4 minutes or until it starts to soften. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add beans, ginger, thyme, sherry, mustard, ketchup, chipotle and water.

Cover the pan and reduce heat to a simmer, cooking until the sauce has thickened, approximately 20 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Top with Mango and Pineapple Salsa.

For the Mango Salsa: Combine last ten ingredients in a medium bowl. Let sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to marry.

Notes:

Along with the salsa, try pairing these beans with a bed of brown rice.

Having a sharp knife is key to cutting a mango. It has one long at seed in the center of the fruit, so you want to cut alongside the pit. From there, I like to cut the cheeks in half, remove the skin and cut into chunks.
