Total Time: 5 mins
Cuisine: Indian
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 2 tbsp sugar (optional)
- 1 tbsp lime juice
Instructions
- Prepare the mangoes by washing, peeling, and cutting them into small, uniform dice. Ensure the mangoes are ripe and sweet for the best flavor.
- Place the diced mango pieces into a high-powered blender or food processor. Choose a machine with strong blending capabilities to create a smooth texture.
- Add the coconut milk to the blender, which will provide creaminess and a subtle tropical undertone to the sorbet.
- If using sugar, add it at this point. For naturally sweet mangoes, you may choose to omit the sugar entirely.
- Squeeze fresh lime juice into the mixture to enhance the mango's flavor and add a bright, tangy note that balances the sweetness.
- Blend the ingredients on high speed for 2-3 minutes until the mixture becomes completely smooth and creamy, with no visible mango chunks.
- For an extra smooth consistency, stop the blender occasionally and scrape down the sides to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Once blended, immediately transfer the mixture to serving bowls or glasses.
- For the best texture, serve immediately as a soft-serve style dessert. If a firmer consistency is desired, freeze for 30-45 minutes before serving.
- Optional: Garnish with fresh mint leaves, a sprinkle of toasted coconut, or a small lime wedge for added visual appeal.
Tips
- Mango Selection is Key: Choose fully ripe, fragrant mangoes that yield slightly when gently pressed. The riper the mango, the sweeter and more flavorful your sorbet will be.
- Blending Technique Matters: Use a high-powered blender or food processor to ensure a silky-smooth texture. Stop and scrape down the sides periodically to incorporate all ingredients evenly.
- Temperature Tricks: For the most luxurious consistency, serve immediately for a soft-serve style dessert. If you prefer a firmer texture, freeze for 30-45 minutes before serving.
- Customization Options: Experiment with garnishes like toasted coconut flakes, fresh mint leaves, or a lime wedge to elevate both presentation and flavor.
- Dairy-Free and Vegan Friendly: This recipe naturally accommodates various dietary preferences, making it a versatile dessert option for almost everyone.
