Coconut and mango mousse

This tropical dessert should be served well chilled.

What you need

5 medium eggs, separated
45 ml light rum
4 1/2 tsp freshly squeezed lime juice
175 g caster sugar
3-4 drops vanilla essence
150 ml milk
25 g creamed coconut
2 small ripe mangos, stone removed and peeled
3 tsp gelatine
150 ml double cream, lightly whipped

Method

  1. Line the outside of individual souffle dishes with baking parchment - to create collars that stand 2 1/2 cm above the top of the dish ? and secure with string.

  2. Place the egg yolks in a heatproof basin. Add the rum, lime juice and sugar and set over a pan of simmering water. Heat gently for 5-6 min, whisking with an electric whisk until pale and fluffy.

  3. Remove from heat and continue whisking for 2-3 min until thickened slightly. Heat the milk with the creamed coconut in a small pan for 2-3 min or until coconut has melted. Remove from heat and whisk in the gelatine, stirring constantly until dissolved.

  4. Remove from heat and leave to cool slightly. Stir the gelatine mixture into the egg yolk mixture until well mixed. Leave to cool for 20-30 min until beginning to set.

  5. Meanwhile, whisk the egg whites in a clean bowl until stiff but not dry. Gently fold into the egg yolk mixture.

  6. Place the mango in a food processor or blender and process until smooth. Fold into the egg mixture. Divide between the souffle dishes.

  7. Chill for 1 days or until set. Remove parchment paper to serve.
