Mango Brulee Recipes

Steps:

• Heat broiler to high with rack 6 inches from heat source. Scatter 1 tablespoon sugar evenly over cut side of each mango half. Immediately broil on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet until mangoes are softened and sugar is hardened and golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve warm with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Place one mango on a cutting board with the narrow side facing you.
• With a sharp knife, slice off one side, sliding the knife along the flat seed.
• Repeat on the other side of the mango.
• With a paring knife, make crisscross cuts through the flesh, cutting up to but not through the skin.
• Repeat with the second mango.
• Sprinkle 1 teaspoon brown sugar over each mango half, then drizzle each one with 1 teaspoon rum (or orange juice).
• Set mango halves on a broiler pan or baking sheet.
• Broil until tops are light golden, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Slice the mangoes on either side of the pit. Discard the pit and peel the fruit. Slice and then chop the fruit. Divide it among 4 ramekins.
• Beat the mascarpone cheese with the yogurt. Fold in the ginger, lime rind and juice, and soft light brown sugar. Divide the mixture among the ramekins and level off the tops. Chill for 2 hours.
• Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of raw brown sugar over the top of each dish, covering the creamy mixture. Place under a hot broiler for 2-3 minutes, until melted and browned. Let cool, then chill until needed. This dessert should be eaten on the day it is prepared.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees farenheit.
• Whisk together egg yolks, granulated sugar, and salt in a bowl until combined well.
• Place this custard mixture into a 2qt saucepan.
• Using the tip of a knife, scrape seeds from vanilla bean into cream, then add pod.
• Heat over moderate heat until hot but not boiling.
• Discard pod and add cream to egg mixture in a slow stream, whisking until combined.
• Spoon 1/4 c mango into each ramekin.
• Pour custard through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl, then ladle over mango.
• Arrange ramekins in a roasting pan and bake in a hot water bath in middle of the oven until custards are just set, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Transfer custards with tongs to a rack to cool, then chill, uncovered, at least 4 hours.
• Preheat broiler.
• Sprinkle turbinado sugar evenly over custards and broil in a shallow baking pan (5 to 7 inches from the heat) until sugar is caramelized, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• *Note* A blowtorch can be used to caramelize the sugar topping instead of the broiler.
