In a medium skillet over medium heat on the stove, warm the oil. Add the shallot and cook until softened, about 2 minutes, stirring often. Stir in the garlic and cook until aromatic, about 1 minute more. Add the mango juice, sake, miso, and cumin; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, and then remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours.
