Ingredients

  • 500 ml Heavy whipping Cream
  • 200 ml mango puree (I used fresh Alphonso mango puree so I could serve it in mango skins, it took about 3-4 mangoes)
  • 100 ml mango juice (I used store bought)
  • 60-100 g sugar; depending on the sweetness of the mango and your taste
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 Lime zest from lime

Instructions

  • Cut the mango in halves. Scoop the pulp out from the halves carefully keeping the skin intact so that you can serve in them. Take the pulp out around the seed as well.
  • Blend the pulp of the mango till smooth. Keep aside.
  • Put a saucepan on low-medium heat and add the heavy cream, salt, sugar, and lime zest. Bring it to a low boil and let it boil on low heat for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the mango puree and juice and whisk it using a whisk. Let it simmer for 2-4 minutes and thicken. The mixture should somewhat coat the back of the spoon.
  • Pass the liquid through a sieve so you get a smooth mixture.
  • Let it cool for 10 minutes.
  • Pour in the mango skins or any shallow dish.
  • Let it set in the fridge for 8 hours or overnight.
  • Enjoy cold from the fridge!

Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Mango Posset
  • Ideally, use Alphonso or Kesar mangoes.
  • The mixture should thicken before you stop cooking it.
  • If you are using mango skins, arrange them in a dish so you can move them to the fridge. Be careful while pouring as the skin is flimsy.
  • These last well in the fridge for 2-4 days.
  • Be sure you set them in a shallow dish so they set. In deep dishes the bottom part may not set.
