Mangoes: A Nostalgic Bite of Summer

For many, the word "mango" conjures up instant nostalgia. It's the undisputed king of fruits, the hero of childhood summers, and a flavor that evokes memories of simpler times.
Remember fighting with siblings over the juiciest mango, the last bite, even the seed, just to suck it dry? Or being banished outside by your grandmother with a mango carefully sliced at the top, to avoid sticky floors? Those were the days of messy hands, happy mouths, and content tummies, all thanks to the sweet, tangy goodness of mangoes.
Whether sweet or sour, mangoes were a daily treat. From mango sandwiches to aamras, sliced pieces sprinkled with chili powder, or simply sucking the fruit straight from the peel, there was no wrong way to enjoy a mango.
Today, the love for mango continues, it has just evolved into including them in creative and healthy dishes for my kids. From zesty mango salsa to delicate mango crepes, fragrant mango Thai curry to classic Thai mango with sticky rice, the possibilities are endless – and being a recipe curator, I have made them all!
But sometimes, the best way to enjoy a mango is to revisit those childhood memories. That's why I'm sharing an easy recipe that encapsulates my favourite mango memory in a delightful French dessert. The combination of sweet, sour, and spicy flavors, paired with an icy texture, will transport you back to those hot summer days, with mangoes fresh from the fridge and a sprinkle of chili powder on the side.

Mango chilli sorbet - makes 4 scoops

South Indian Themed Cheese Ball with Baked Nippat Crackers

Created this recipe for a South Indian themed get together.
Instead of the regular malagapodi, i used the traditional Mangalore ghee roast masala as the spice component of this cheese. Sauteed the masala with caramelised onions and finished it with crunchy and crumbled curry leaves.
This was paired with baked nippat crackers, you will find the recipe for this in the feed.
