How to Make Lime Mango Surprise
- Prepare 2 ripe mangoes by peeling, removing the pit, and slicing into bite-sized wedges.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup fresh lime juice, 2 stalks lemongrass (finely chopped), and 1/2 cup granulated sugar.
- Gently heat the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely. Do not boil. Remove from heat.
- Allow the lime mixture to cool completely. This is crucial to prevent the mango from becoming mushy.
- Strain the cooled lime mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove lemongrass pieces.
- Arrange the mango wedges in a serving bowl or individual dessert dishes.
- Pour the strained lime mixture evenly over the mango wedges.
- Sprinkle with the zest of 1 lime. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve chilled in small bowls. Top with a scoop of your favorite lemon, orange, or pineapple sherbet and garnish with fresh mint sprigs.
