Coconut lime ice cream with caramelized mango slices: This fruity dessert can be savored in generous portions – it contains almost no fat.

Ingredients

  • 1 Lime
  • 100 g cane sugar
  • 500 ml coconut water (Tetra Pak)
  • 250 g ripe mango (1 ripe mango)

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Squeeze the lime to extract its juice. Set aside 3 tablespoons of sugar. Combine the remaining sugar with lime juice and 5 tablespoons of coconut water in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

  2. 2.

    Let the syrup cool slightly, then whisk in the rest of the coconut water. Allow the mixture to reach room temperature before proceeding.

  3. 3.

    Stir the mixture thoroughly, pour it into a shallow dish, and place it in the freezer. As soon as the edges begin to freeze, stir vigorously with a whisk. Continue stirring multiple times over about 4 hours until fully frozen.

  4. 4.

    Peel the mango and cut the flesh into thick slices away from the pit.

  5. 5.

    Slice the mango pieces fan‑shaped and then halve them lengthwise.

  6. 6.

    Sprinkle the remaining sugar over the mango slices and caramelize them using a kitchen torch or under a grill. Arrange the caramelized mango on plates. Serve the coconut ice cream in glasses or scoop it into balls and add to the dish immediately.
