Instructions

Prepare the Custard

Mix 2 tablespoons of vanilla custard powder with 50ml of cold milk until smooth. Set aside.

Puree the Mango

Peel and pit the ripe mango. Puree the mango flesh using a blender or food processor until smooth.

Cook the Custard

Heat the remaining full-cream milk (450ml) in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring almost to a boil, stirring occasionally.

Combine Ingredients

Whisk the reserved custard mixture into the hot milk, stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming. Reduce heat to low. Stir in sugar until dissolved.

Add Mango and Cream

Add the mango puree and fresh cream to the custard. Continue stirring gently until the mixture thickens slightly and comes together. Remove from heat immediately.

Cool and Serve

Pour the custard into individual serving glasses or a larger dish. Let it cool completely in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow it to set properly.

Garnish and Enjoy

Garnish with fresh mango slices, chopped nuts, or your favorite toppings. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips

For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk instead of some of the dairy milk.
If you don't have fresh mangoes, you can substitute with high-quality canned mango puree. Adjust the sugar accordingly.
To make this dessert even creamier, add a tablespoon of softened butter or ghee once removed from heat.
For a more intense mango flavor, add a teaspoon of mango extract to the custard mixture.
