Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe mangoes
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened gelatin
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
Start by peeling the mangoes and removing the flesh from the pit. Dice the mango flesh and transfer it to a blender or food processor.
Add the full-fat coconut milk, fresh lime juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt to the blender with the mangoes. Blend everything together until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the unsweetened gelatin with 2 tablespoons of water. Let it bloom for about 1-2 minutes.
Gently heat the gelatin mixture over low heat, stirring until the gelatin has completely dissolved. This should take about 3-4 minutes. Avoid boiling.
Remove the gelatin mixture from the heat and let it cool slightly, then add it to the mango mixture in the blender.
Blend the mixture again until all the ingredients are well combined and smooth.
Pour the mango mousse mixture into serving cups or a large dish. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
Once set, garnish if desired with additional fresh mango slices or a sprinkle of unsweetened shredded coconut, and serve chilled.
