Ingredients
Scale
- 2–3 large ripe mangoes (to yield about 2 cups of puree)
- 1/2 cup cold water (for blooming gelatin)
- 1/4 cup granulated white sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon unflavored powdered gelatin (or gelatin sheets)
- Optional: lime juice (for brightness)
- Optional: evaporated milk or coconut milk (for a creamier texture)
Instructions
- Prepare the mango puree by peeling the mangoes, cutting the flesh away from the pit, and blending until smooth to achieve about 2 cups of puree.
- Bloom the gelatin by sprinkling it over 1/2 cup of cold water in a small bowl and letting it sit for 5-10 minutes until it swells.
- Dissolve the bloomed gelatin and sugar in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring until completely dissolved, about 2-3 minutes.
- Combine the warm gelatin and sugar mixture with the mango puree, stirring well. Taste and adjust sweetness or add lime juice if desired.
- Pour the mixture into serving dishes or a mold, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours or overnight until set.
- Serve chilled, optionally garnished with fresh mango cubes, mint, or whipped cream.
