Griddled mango

Ingredients
For the mango

 6x1cm/½in slices of mango

 1 tbsp icing sugar

For the coconut custard

 600ml/1 pint milk

 200g/7oz creamed coconut
 3 free-range egg yolks
 2 tbsp caster sugar
 1 lime, zest only

Method
1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
2. To prepare the mango, heat a griddle pan until smoking. Dust the mango slices with icing
sugar and griddle for 2 minutes on each side.
3. To make the custard, pour the milk into a saucepan and add the creamed coconut. Allow
the creamed coconut to melt. Scald the liquid and leave to cool for 1 minute.
4. In a large bowl, mix the yolks and sugar together. Gradually pour in the milk and coconut
mixture, whisking continuously.
5. Return the mixture to the saucepan over a gentle heat. Stir continuously until the mixture
is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Remove from the heat and mix in the
lime zest.
6. To serve, pour the custard into a warm bowl placed on a large plate and pile the mango to
one side.
