Recipe for mango ice cream with a mango coulis

Recipe for mango ice cream with a mango coulis

I love summer. I love the long sunny days. I love the heat. I love being outdoors.

I normally feel very energetic in summer and I love going for long walks on the beach. I also enjoy working in my garden at this time of the year and having picnics in the winelands, or in my garden.

With the heat wave in Cape Town, at the moment, I unfortunately feel totally exhausted and I just feel like sleeping.

Luckily I have summer fruits to cheer me up and mangoes are one of my most favourite summer fruits. Mangoes are best eaten as is, peeled and sliced, but it also makes wonderful chutney!

Mango ice cream

With this recipe for mango ice cream I have combined two of my most favourite things to eat in summer…. Ice cream and mangoes!

The mangoes in this recipe can be replaced with almost any other fruit. Just make sure that the fruit is ripe.

Mangoes are called “the king of fruits” for a reason. This fruit is packed with vitamin A and C and provides anti-ageing and health boosting essentials.
