Mango ice-cream

[Intrepidtrier]

Hi All. Well I just tried making mango ice-cream the same way that the banana ice-cream is done by just freezing the mango and then just blitzing it and it turned out a little ripper. It turns out real creamy and smooth, better than making sorbet with it. Hope some of you try it and enjoy the great flavour of it. Sandy

Yes - I tried this the other day too and added bit of cream - tasted like a Weis bar - YUM YUM!

Not a bad idea Nay-nay, I wonder how it would go with some of our home made yoghurt, it would be one way of using up the 2litres that I made the other day.

Thanks Sandy - might be better to freeze the mangoes rather than bottle them?

The mango and yogurt ice cream is a good idea.    I have little packets of frozen mango in the freezer,  and little packets of frozen berry yogurt,  put both in bowl of T.M and zap until a good consistency. Yummmmmy

You are probably right again Thermomixer. Sounds like a lot of trouble just to bottle them.

I did this too as I'd frozen chunks of mango when they were cheap. It was for a coconut mango ice cream and I'd already made the custard, so I put the mango sorbet with the custard, but it was divine on its own!

I now freeze all sorts of fruit - chopped watermelon, halved cherries, strawberries, pineapple etc all for making sorbets or ice creams.
