I was recently cleaning through my freezer and had noticed three small pieces of mango. It was not enough really to make a cobbler or smoothies. So I thought I would try adding it to a plain custard recipe. Nothing fancy. I used an egg free custard and it turned out well.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cup milk
3/4 cup of cream (fresh or tin)
4 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 cup mango pureed
Method:
1. Stir in cornstarch with the milk
2. In a medium bowl add all the ingredients and blend with a whisk or electric mixer until smooth.
3. Transfer mixture to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil on medium low flame, stirring continuously for 8 to 10 minutes.
4. Pour in a large bowl or small bowls and keep at room temperature until cooled a little. Then transfer bowls to refrigerator for a couple of hours before serving.
Enjoy :)
