Ingredients
- 3 pieces Ripe mangoes
- 1 can Sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Gelatin powder
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 1 cup Chopped mango (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Peel the mangoes, remove the pit, and cut the flesh into chunks. Blend until smooth to make a mango puree. Set aside 1 cup of the puree for later use as garnish.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the gelatin powder with 3 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Step 3
In a small saucepan over low heat, gently warm the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved, then remove it from the heat.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mango puree (excluding the reserved 1 cup), sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, and dissolved gelatin until well combined.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, use a handheld or stand mixer to whip the heavy cream and granulated sugar until soft peaks form.
Step 6
Gently fold the whipped cream into the mango mixture using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the cream.
Step 7
Divide the mixture evenly into serving glasses or bowls. Cover them with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until set.
Step 8
Once set, top each serving with a spoonful of the reserved mango puree and a sprinkle of chopped mango for garnish.
Step 9
Optional: Add a fresh mint leaf to each serving for an aromatic and decorative touch.
