Step by Step Method
Step 1
Working over a non-metallic bowl to catch the juice, peel the mango and cut the fruit away from the pit.
Step 2
Chop large pieces into quarter inch dice. (I would just use the food processor and just blend that puppy or a potato masher).
Step 3
Add half a cup of sugar and lime juice to the fruit.
Step 4
Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Step 5
Whisk egg yolks and three quarters cup sugar in a bowl until the sugar dissolves.
Step 6
Make a custard by scalding the milk in a large saucepan and pouring it into the egg mixture in a thin stream while whisking.
Step 7
Pour the milk and egg mixture into the saucepan and cook over medium heat, uncovered, until thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, about 3 minutes.
Step 8
Do not let it boil.
Step 9
Pour the custard into a bowl, and let it cool.
Step 10
Stir the mango mixture into the custard mixture.
Step 11
Stir in the cream.
Step 12
Taste for sweetness and add more sugar if desired.
Step 13
Freeze in an ice cream maker, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
