Mango Delight

We absolutely love exotic fruit and mango is gorgeous with its distinctive flavour. This dessert is very quick to prepare and it is delicious. Mango is a native fruit from South Asia and is the national fruit of India, Pakistan and  The Philippines. When ripe, it is a very refreshing fruit and is used as an ingredient of cool summer drinks such as Mango lassi and Panha. This quick and delicious concoction turned out to be delicious and so refreshing. So do give it a go, maybe to finish off a great summer BBQ. For 6 people you will need...
  • Flesh of 2 large ripe mangoes, chopped into pieces
  • 300ml sour cream or fromage frais, straight from the fridge
  • 70g caster sugar [optional]
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Fresh basil leaves, to serve
  • Flaked almonds, to serve
How to...
  1. Blend all ingredients apart from basil leaves and almonds in a blender until smooth.
  2. Pour into serving glasses and decorate with the basil leaves and flaked almonds.
  3. Serve super chilled!
Enjoy!!
