Mango Sorbet Recipe

by Everydayhealth.com

Try this beautiful roasted mango sorbet recipe.. It is halfway between sorbet and ice cream, but still light and full of mango flavor.

Delicious as is, or you may serve with slices of fresh mango or with a bit of coconut rum - liqueur drizzled over. It is a fresh and fruity palate cleanser, also refreshing after a rich main course.


Mango Sorbet Recipe

Ingredients:

3 medium mango(es), ripe

1/2 cup(s) sugar

1/2 cup(s) water

1/3 cup(s) banana(s), coarsely mashed

2 tablespoon lime juice


Preparation:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place whole mangoes in a shallow baking pan and roast until very soft, 70 to 90 minutes. Refrigerate until cool, about 1 hour.

• Meanwhile, combine sugar and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Remove from heat and refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour.

• When the mangoes are cool enough to handle, remove skin and coarsely chop pulp, discarding pit. Place the mango pulp and accumulated juices in a food processor. Add banana and lime juice; process until very smooth. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the sugar syrup.

• Cover and refrigerate until cold, 40 minutes or overnight.

• Freeze the mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions. (Alternatively, freeze the mixture in a shallow metal pan until solid, about 6 hours. Break into chunks and process in a food processor until smooth.)


• Serve immediately or transfer to a storage container and let harden in the freezer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Serve in chilled dishes.

*Hope you enjoyed this mango sorbet recipe, now I'd like to tell you about my favorite diet program that uses a lot of the healthy lower GI foods: Isabel de los Rios' 'The Diet Solution Program'.

The Diet Solution Program favours a long term health orientated approach to fat loss, but not offering anyone a quick fix to their weight troubles. It has loads of valuable data and research to support its approach. I personally investigated the program thoroughly and my mum has been using it for a while now. I have to say she got some great results.

The nutrition plan is one of the healthiest we have seen, a strong core focus on vegetables, fruits, vitamin dense foods, lean proteins, select dairy produce and a clear approach to not expecting one diet to work for all body types. So give it a try and let me know how you’re doing.*
