Juicy, fragrant, sweet and sensual… There are few foods as sexy as a honey-ripe mango. Nigel Slater in The Observer: Also check out his recipe for mango frozen yogurt recipe:
Some wait open-mouthed for the asparagus season, others count the days until the first new potato, and while both of those appeal to me, there is no sight I long for more than that of a pile of slim cardboard boxes bearing the legend Alphonse Mangoes. The tubby golden ones arrive here from India in late May, at much the same time as the equally luscious and elegant variety (usually the Nam Doc Mai) from Thailand, whose stone is as thin as a blade. Hot on their heels are the heavenly honey mangoes from Pakistan. Sublime as the hundreds of other varieties of mango can be, these three are my desert island fruits, the food I want on my lips as I pass from this world, my final feast before I go to the gallows.
