Ingredients
  • 4 unripe mangos, peekled and thinly-sliced
  • 2 tblsp. sugar, or to taste
Directions

In a pot with just enough water to cover the bottom, steam the mango slices until they are very soft. Keep a close watch to make sure water doesn't simmer away, leaving mangos to burn or stick. Puree the cooked mangos in a blender or food processor along with the sugar, or mash mangos and sugar together until all lumps are gone. Serve immediately, or chill.

Variation: Whip 1 cup of heavy cream and fold it into chilled mango puree before serving.
