How to Make Carmelized Mango Soup With Poppy Seed Rice Pudding

  1. **Mango Soup:** Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add 2 pounds ripe mangoes (peeled and diced), 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 1 teaspoon ground cardamom, and 1 cinnamon stick. Sauté until mangoes begin to caramelize (about 8-10 minutes), stirring occasionally.
  2. Pour in 1/2 cup orange juice and 1/4 cup white wine. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  3. Remove the ginger, cardamom, and cinnamon stick. Transfer the mango mixture to a blender and puree until completely smooth. Stir in 2 tablespoons of lime juice.
  4. Refrigerate the mango soup until thoroughly chilled (at least 2 hours).
  5. **Rice Pudding:** Line a 9x13 inch baking dish with waxed paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift it out later. Set aside.
  6. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
  7. Split 1 vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds using the back of a knife.
  8. Add the vanilla bean seeds and pod, 1 cinnamon stick, 1 cup Arborio rice, 2 tablespoons poppy seeds, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1 stalk lemongrass (bruised) to the saucepan. Sauté for 2 minutes, or until fragrant.
  9. Pour in 4 cups whole milk and 1 cup coconut milk. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
  10. Cover the saucepan, reduce heat to the lowest setting, and let simmer for 30 minutes, or until most of the liquid is absorbed and the rice is very tender, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  11. Discard the cinnamon stick and vanilla bean pod.
  12. Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves and 1 tablespoon lime zest. Spread the rice pudding evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  13. Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled (at least 2 hours).
  14. **To Serve:** Using a sharp knife, cut the chilled rice pudding into 4-inch squares.
  15. Place one square of rice pudding in each of six shallow bowls. Ladle the chilled mango soup over the pudding and serve immediately.
