Following our recent post on Alphonso Mangos, we have discovered a substitute for the 9 months of the year when they are out of season - Alphonso Mango Pulp! It has all the flavour of a fresh mango, however it is tinned and can be bought all year round. It is easily available at your nearest Indian supermarket, and even in some conventional supermarkets (we found some in Waitrose).
Our favorite way to eat the pulp is in a Lassi, an Indian yoghurt-y drink (almost like a healthy milkshake!). The recipe only requires three ingredients; mango pulp, yoghurt and milk.
To serve two, pour about 200 ml of mango pulp into a blender.
Add four tablespoons of yoghurt...
...And a big glug of milk.
Then blitz for a few seconds until it's smooth...
...Pour into two glasses and enjoy!
In this heatwave we have also been freezing the Lassi to make ice lollies- a perfect way to cool down!
To get the two-tone effect, pour a little of the Lassi mixture into a lolly-mould, allow to freeze (around 30 mins), and then top up with mango pulp and freeze for about an hour.
Lots of love,
Fiona, Samara and Anna
