Recipe: Mango

2 mangoes
1 tbsp lime juice
1/2 cup sugar
300ml milk
300 ml cream
2 eggs

You're gonna need a blender or food processor for this one. Puree the mango, lime juice and half the sugar together. I meant to simmer the mango pieces with the sugar first, but forgot. It still turned out fine. Use the eggs, milk and the rest of the sugar to make le custarde. Let it cool, then mix in the pureed fruit and the cream. Put it in the ice cream maker and the rest of this story writes itself...

Remarks: Great, but personally I fell it was little too creamy. May have been better to go gelato-style on this one and only use milk for the dairy element. That's a personal preference though, this is still damn good. If you could take the Australian summer and make it into a frozen dessert, then this would be it. Just remember to remove the race riots first, they can leave a bad taste in the mouth...
