6 large organic mango firm ripe peeled and pitted |
4 tablespoons sugar |
2 tablespoons organic limes juice freshly squeezed |
1 teaspoon organic limes peel grated |
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream |
1/4 cup sliced almonds toasted |
8 sprigs mint for garnish |
Directions:
1. Blend 2 mangoes with 2 tablespoons of sugar in a food processor until smooth. Strain the mango puree through a meshed strainer into a medium bowl: discard the fibrous solids in the strainer. Stir the lime juice and lime peel into the mango puree.
2. Cut the remaining 4 mangoes into 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch pieces. Stir one-fourth (about 1 cup) of the mango pieces into the mango puree. Cover and refrigerate the puree and remaining mango pieces separately until cold, at least 3 hours.
3. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar in a large bowl until soft peaks form. Fold the mango puree into the whipped cream.
4. Layer the mango puree and reserved mango pieces decoratively in 8 parfait glasses. Sprinkle with the almonds. Garnish with the mint sprigs and serve.
