Ingredients

• 2 large ripe mangoes
• 50 grams granulated sugar
• 250 ml heavy whipping cream
• 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
• 3 tablespoons water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Peel the mangoes and cut the flesh away from the pit. Chop the mango flesh and blend it in a blender until smooth to obtain around 1 and 1/2 cups of mango puree.

Step 2

In a small bowl, add the gelatin and 3 tablespoons of water. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, gently heat the bloomed gelatin over low heat until completely dissolved. Do not let it boil. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 4

In a larger bowl, combine the mango puree, sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

Step 5

Add the dissolved gelatin to the mango mixture and mix well to ensure the gelatin is fully incorporated.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks using a mixer.

Step 7

Gently fold the whipped cream into the mango mixture in batches, ensuring not to deflate the mix.

Step 8

Spoon the mango mousse into individual serving glasses or a large serving bowl.

Step 9

Cover and chill the mousse in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until set.

Step 10

Serve chilled, optionally garnished with additional whipped cream or fresh mango slices.
