Ingredients
- 4 ripe mangoes, cheeks removed (cheeks are the sides of the mangoes)
- 1/4 cup Malibu rum
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- Vanilla ice cream, to serve (I like no sugar added)
- Lime wedge, to serve
How to Make
-
Step 1: Preheat a barbecue plate on medium-high heat. Score 3 vertical lines and 3 horizontal lines into each mango cheek (don't cut all the way through). Brush cheeks generously with rum.
-
Step 2: Place sugar on a plate. Dip cut side of mango cheeks into sugar to form a thick coating.
-
Step 3: Place a sheet of non-stick aluminum foil (not the regular kind) on the hot barbecue plate. Place mango cheeks, sugar side down, on baking paper. Barbecue mango for 4 to 5 minutes or until golden.
-
Step 4: Turn mango skin inside out. Place on plates. Drizzle with caramel from foil. Serve with ice-cream and lime wedges.
