Ingredients
- Full mangoes, not over-ripe
- ¾ cup sugar to each cup of pulp
- ½ tsp lime juice to each cup of pulp
Directions
Wash, dry, and peel the mangoes, then sieve or purée the flesh. Add sugar and lime juice.
Boil the mixture in a thick pan, stirring constantly until the mixture leaves the sides.
Test a little in cold water -- it should form into a ball. Clean and dry a shallow pan, grease it and brush it with rum.
Pour in the "cheese" to a depth of about 1 inch, and put to cool. When cool, cut into cubes and toss into crushed white sugar. The cheese may be moulded into a variety of shapes if desired.
