For an extra layer of flavor, lightly toast some sesame seeds and sprinkle them over the finished dish. Adjust the amount of palm sugar to your preference. Taste and add more if needed. Ensure the mangoes are perfectly ripe for the best flavor and texture. If you can't find palm sugar, brown sugar can be substituted.
