Equipment

  • Food Processor or Liquidiser/Smoothie Maker
  • Pestle & Mortar
  • Electric Mixer

Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 cardamom pods seeds only
  • 2 mangoes ripe, peeled and destoned
  • 130 ml double or whipping cream
  • 200 g Greek yogurt full fat
  • 1 lime juice and zest
  • 2 tablespoon runny honey

For the Crumb:

  • 20 g flaked almond
  • 20 g oats
  • 2 tablespoon caster sugar
  • 2 tablespoon water
  • ⅛ teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions
 

To Make the Crumb:

  • Toast oats and flaked almonds in a dry pan for 4-5 minututes. Gather them to one side of the frying pan. Add 2 tablespoon of sugar and 2 tablespoon of water next to the oat and almond mixture and shaking the pan gently, wait a few seconds for the sugar to start dissolving. Then mix briefly to coat in sugar. Sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon. Your pats and almonds should look frosted with sugar and cinnamon and crunchy. Tip the mixture onto a plate or some baking parchment in a single layer and leave to cool completely.

To Make Mango and Lime Fools:

  • Using a pestle and mortar, crush the cardamom seeds into a powder.
  • Place the flesh of two ripe mangoes in a food processor and belend to a smooth puree. Add half of the lime zest and squeeze half a lime in.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the cream to soft peaks. Then stir in the Greek yoghurt and whisk again to thicken slightly. Trying not to knock too much air out, mix in the juice of the remaining half lime. Fold in cardamom and runny honey.
  • Get four glasses or seethrough dessert bowls ready and spoon layers of the creamy mixture alternating with the mango purée. Place in the fridge until you're ready to serve.
  • Just before serving, top with a spoonful of the crumb topping and decorate with more lime zest.
