Eggless Mango Custard

Being a serious mango lover I often miss the taste and unique flavour when they are not in season. However why should this stop us from enjoying mango desserts all year round!? In an attempt to make something mango flavoured which feels just like the real thing, here is my very simple and quick Mango dessert - Mango Custard.

My two tasters at home and our friends that have tasted it have all given it the thumbs up and as for me the mango lover, I'm thrilled to be able to enjoy mango whenever we feel like it :)

One simple recipe, many delicious desserts! 

Ingredients: 1 cup full cream milk, half cup caster sugar, 2 tablespoons corn flour, 1 teaspoon mango essence or flavouring.
 

Make: Heat up the milk on stove until it is hot but not boiling and add the caster sugar and mix well. Keep flame to minimum. 

In a small bowl mix the corn flour with just a tablespoon of cold milk and mango essence, stir to remove any lumps. Add this mixture bit by bit into the hot milk on low flame. Stir continuously and you will see the whole mixture start to thicken. It should be at the right consistency after about 5 to 8 minutes of stirring. 

Remove from flame and pour into desired serving glasses. Immediately place in fridge and leave to set for atleast 1 hour before decorating as you wish and serving!

Enjoy your delicious mango custard topped with your favourite fruits, cream and toppings!
