Ingredients used

  • 250 ml (1 cup) mango purée
  • 30 ml (2 tbsp) water
  • 80 g granulated sugar
  • 1½ limes (zest of 1 lime and juice of 1½ limes)
  • 5 g salt
  • 25 g honey
  • 1 gelatin sheet, bloomed
  • 2 ripe Champagne (Ataulfo) mangoes
  • 400 ml whipping cream (35%)
  • 15 g granulated sugar
  • 4 Bola de Berlim (Berliner-style doughnuts), thawed
  • Chamoy, to taste
  • Tajín, to taste

Preparation

  • Step 1

    Remove the Bolas from the freezer and let them thaw at room temperature for 150 minutes.

  • Step 2

    In a saucepan, combine the mango purée, water, 80 g sugar, juice of ½ lime, salt, and honey. Bring to a boil and simmer for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and whisk in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved. Allow to cool to room temperature.

  • Step 3

    Dice part of the mangoes and combine 150 g of diced mango with 2 tablespoons of the cooled mango glaze. Spoon into small demi-sphere molds. Freeze until completely firm, about 2–3 hours.

  • Step 4

    Whip the cream to soft peaks. Add 15 g sugar, the zest of 1 lime, and a small amount of lime juice to taste. Continue whipping to medium peaks. Refrigerate until needed.

  • Step 5

    Slice the remaining mango into thin, even strips. Slightly overlap the slices and roll them gently to form rose shapes. Keep chilled until assembly.

  • Step 6

    Lightly brush the thawed doughnuts with the mango glaze. Using a round cutter or small knife, remove a small section from the top and hollow out a cavity.

  • Step 7

    Pipe lime Chantilly into the cavity. Insert a frozen mango demi-sphere into the center. Pipe additional Chantilly around the insert to secure it. Top with a mango rose.

  • Step 8

    Finish with a small Chantilly rosette. Drizzle with chamoy and lightly dust with Tajín.

Chef's tip

Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of textures: soft doughnut, airy lime Chantilly, and a refreshing frozen mango center.
