πŸ›’ Ingredients

  • βœ“ 2 ripe but firm mangoes (about 400g each)
  • βœ“ 3 tbsp plain Greek yogurt (0% or 2%)
  • βœ“ 1 tsp raw honey
  • βœ“ 2 tbsp chamoy sauce
  • βœ“ 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • βœ“ 1/4 tsp TajΓ­n or chili powder
  • βœ“ Pinch of sea salt
  • βœ“ 2-3 fresh mint leaves (optional garnish)
  • βœ“ 2 tbsp chamoy sauce (Pulparindo or Lucas brand recommended)
  • βœ“ 1 tbsp fresh lime juice (about 1/2 lime)
  • βœ“ 3 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
  • βœ“ 1 tsp raw honey

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³ Instructions

1. Prep the Mangoes: Hold each mango upright and slice vertically along the large flat pit, creating two cheeks. Score the flesh in a crosshatch pattern, cutting just to (but not through) the skin.
2. Create the Cup: Gently push the skin inward from the bottom to pop the scored flesh outward, creating a hedgehog-like presentation. Place each mango half in a small bowl or on a plate.
3. Make the Yogurt Base: In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt and honey until smooth and slightly sweetened. This replaces the richness of condensed milk.

4. Combine Chamoy Drizzle: In another small bowl, stir chamoy sauce with fresh lime juice. The lime juice thins the chamoy to a pourable consistency while adding brightness.
5. Layer the Flavors: Spoon the yogurt-honey mixture evenly over the mango flesh (about 1.5 tbsp per cup). Follow with the chamoy-lime drizzle, creating visible ribbons across each mango.
6. Season and Finish: Dust each cup with TajΓ­n or chili powder (about 1/8 tsp per cup), finishing with a tiny pinch of sea salt to enhance all flavors. Tear mint leaves over top if desired.
7. Serve Immediately: Enjoy within 5 minutes while the mango is still cool and the chamoy drizzle is vibrant. Eat with a spoon, scooping mango, yogurt, and sauce with each bite.
