How to Make Mango Brulee

  1. Preheat your broiler.
  2. Place one ripe mango on a cutting board, narrow side facing you.
  3. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice off one side of the mango, following the curve of the large flat seed. Repeat on the other side.
  4. With a paring knife, create a crosshatch pattern of shallow cuts across the flesh of each mango half, being careful not to cut through the skin.
  5. In a small bowl, gently combine 2 teaspoons of light brown sugar and 2 teaspoons of dark rum.
  6. Evenly drizzle the brown sugar-rum mixture over the cut surface of each mango half, ensuring all the criss-crossed sections are coated.
  7. Place the mango halves cut-side up on a broiler pan or baking sheet.
  8. Broil for 5-7 minutes, keeping a close eye, until the sugar is caramelized and the mango is slightly softened but still holds its shape. The tops should be a light golden brown.
  9. Serve immediately with 2 lime wedges for squeezing over the brulee.
