Summer time is fast approaching, and we all know what that means. Mangos are going to be back in season and we’re all going to be indulging on this delicious summer fruit. If you’re having a dinner party or just want to treat yourself, this mango brulee with passionfruit cream by Calypso Mango is the ultimate summer dessert for all.
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 15 mins
Cooking Time: 10 mins
Ingredients
– 4 Mangoes
– ⅔ cup white sugar
Passion fruit Cream
– 300ml thickened cream
– ¼ cup sour cream
– 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
– 2 passionfruit, pulp removed
Method
– To make passion fruit cream, whip the cream, sour cream and vanilla together until thick. Fold through the passionfruit. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
– Cut the cheeks from the mangoes. Score the mango cheeks. Spoon the sugar onto a plate.
– Heat a large, non-stick frying pan over high heat. Dip 2-3 mango cheeks (see tip), cut-side down, into sugar. Place a sheet of baking paper into the hot pan, then add mangoes, cut-side down. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until sugar has caramelised. Using tongs, lift mango cheeks onto a tray, cut side up. Discard the paper. Repeat with remaining mangoes and sugar.
– Serve mangoes with passion fruit cream.
Tip: Best to cook in batches so the pan stays hot and mango doesn’t stew.
You can also cook mangoes on a flat plate of a barbecue if you prefer. They are delicious served with coconut ice-cream.
