And to compensate for their "loss", I've made a big tray of mango lemon sorbet, this time with an additional kick: vodka.
Ingredients:
160g sugar
3 1/2 cup water
1 kg mango (approx. 3 mangoes)
2 lemons
1 shot vodka (depending on your taste) 1. Dissolved sugar in boiling water. Keep (sugar syrup) aside to cooled.
2. Peel, cut mangoes into small cubes. Blend all mangoes to make mango puree. While blending, add in the lemon juice.
3. Pour sugar syrup into a big stainless steel tray/ plate. Combine with mango puree. Mix/ stir well.
4. Put tray in freezer for about 2 hours (time vary depending on the sizes of your tray. Check now & then to make sure you did not over freezed the mixture). The mixture should be approx. 40% frozen. By using a fork, stir the mixture.
5. Blend the mixture to get a smooth texture (like the sorbet). While blending, add in the vodka.
personal tips: to get sweet mangoes, try the fruits/ vegetables shop at taipan, subang jaya. The one next to San Farncisco Restaurant. Mangoes around RM4-6/kg.
