4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 Ripe mangoes, or 4 if they
.are small ones
Rind and juice of 2 limes
100 grams Granulated sugar
2 tablespoons Water
4 (to 8) fresh mint leaves

Directions

Peel the mangoes with a very sharp knife. Cut them lengthwise as close as possible to the stone, to obtain two caps. Slice these across the other way and, taking care to keep the slices together, arrange on a lipped plate. Put lime juice in pan with sugar. Add water and heat for a few minutes until reduced to a syrup. Towards the end of this process add the lime rind, mix and allow to cool.

Pour cooled syrup over the mangoes and decorate with mint sprigs.

You can pour a shot of vodka over the finished dish. From: Kerry Camm 101654.1741@... Date: 2-Jun-97 16:58
