Description
I Wanted to make a mango tiramisu or a mango enter-met but my laziness didn’t permit me to do so . Just mixed some cream with mango pulp , sugar and gelatine . Set it half way and arranged these mango slices on top by dipping into sugar syrup which helped to bring out the beauty of the mangoes with extra wickedness . My laziness did help me come up with an innovative new pudding and be warned as this absolute winner is addictive . This was made for my friend dr. Bindu’s daughters as a treat from me as her elder one darshini scored a 97 % in the 10 th and the little one sanjana is all set to leave to a boarding school in kodaikanal . The girls were delighted and loved the dessert to bits . Now I was all confused with naming this mango beauty and had no other go than to ask help from my fellow home chefs in Facebook . Harini ram suggested mango beauty and aara wanted a mousse to be added in the middle . Thus a name was born to my Devine , dainty mango beauty .
