Bowen and Kensington Pride Mangoes are a national favourite to us Aussies. This is a recipe was given to me about 12 years ago by a friend in Queensland, who has numerous mango trees. Only use fresh mangoes for this recipe. A sweet, refreshing and fragrant dessert which is best made ahead - perfect for entertaining. I always double and make two as my teenagers love these on a hot day after dinner. "Cooking time" is chilling time.
