Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
In a small pot over medium-low heat, stir together 1 tablespoon of the seeded and minced habanero or jalapeño, the cubed mango, 3/4 cup superfine sugar, 1/2 cup rice wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon lime juice, and 1 tablespoon lime zest. Simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture becomes slightly syrupy and thickens slightly.
-
Step 2.
Transfer the mango-habanero mixture to a blender and blend until completely smooth. Cover the blender or a bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the hot sauce until needed, at least 30 minutes.
-
Step 3.
Prepare the cake dough of your choice according to its recipe, adding the remaining 3 tablespoons of seeded and minced habanero or jalapeño at the same time as the sugar. Fry or bake the doughnuts as directed, then allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
-
Step 4.
Once the doughnuts are cool and the hot sauce is chilled, frost each doughnut with the cooled hot sauce. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
