How to Make Mango Tarte Tatin

  1. Unroll one sheet (approximately 14x14 inches) of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Place it on a baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
  3. In a small saucepan, melt 50g (1/4 cup) of unsalted butter over low heat. Sprinkle in 100g (1/2 cup) of granulated sugar and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture turns a light golden amber color. Be careful not to burn the sugar.
  4. Immediately pour the golden caramel into a 25cm (10-inch) tart tin. Tilt the tin to evenly coat the bottom.
  5. Peel and slice 2-3 ripe mangoes (approximately 500g) into 1/4 inch thick slices. Starting from the outside edge of the tart tin, arrange the mango slices in a circle over the caramel, slightly overlapping each slice.
  6. Carefully lay the chilled puff pastry over the fruit, tucking the edges down inside the tin to create a seal.
  7. Prick the top of the pastry several times with a fork to allow steam to escape.
  8. Place the tart tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Let the tart rest in the tin for 5 minutes to allow the caramel to set slightly.
  10. Carefully invert the tart onto a serving plate. Sprinkle with 25g (1/4 cup) of toasted pine nuts (optional).
  11. Serve warm and enjoy!
