Ingredients (Serves 4)
For the Mousse
- 2 large ripe Alphonso mangoes, peeled and pureed
- 1/2 cup thick coconut cream (chilled overnight)
- 2 tablespoons jaggery syrup or raw honey (optional, depending on mango sweetness)
- 8-10 saffron strands, soaked in 2 tablespoons warm coconut milk
- 1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder
- 1 tablespoon edible rose water (optional for added exotic aroma)
For Garnish
- Pistachio slivers
- Dried rose petals
- A few strands of saffron
- Fresh mint leaves
Instructions
Prepare the Mango Puree
- Blend the mango pulp into a smooth puree. If needed, strain to remove any fibrous bits for
an ultra-silky texture.
Whip the Coconut Cream
- In a chilled bowl, whip the thick coconut cream until it becomes light and slightly fluffy.
(Hand whisking for 3–4 minutes is sufficient.)
Combine the Elements
- Gently fold the mango puree into the coconut cream.
- Add the saffron milk, cardamom powder, and rose water.
- Mix softly, maintaining the airy texture.
Set the Mousse
- Spoon the mixture into elegant glass goblets or small bowls.
- Refrigerate for 2–3 hours until lightly set.
Final Garnish
- Just before serving, decorate with pistachio slivers, rose petals, saffron strands, and a small
mint leaf for a burst of freshness.
