MANGO BREAD THE PANAMA WAY
***Disclaimer*** As stated I have not had the chance to make this bread yet. Annacia was kind enough to try it and found that 2 cups of mango is just too much and does not allow the batter to form properly and causes the bread to be much too moist. As such I am adjusting the amount of mango to be between 1 cup to 1 1/2 cups total (which is approximately one mango). Once I have time to prepare this myself I'll post a final quantity for the mango. We both feel that this reduction will present you with a beautiful and flavorful loaf of bread. ** (5/31) Posting for ZWT7 - Central/South American region. I have not tried this bread as of the date of posting but I fully intend on making it before ZWT starts. All the ingredients just sound perfect for a very tropical feel with a quick bread.

SEMOLINA HALWA
My friend Chandra gave me this recipe years ago and the only thing I changed is that I use water and milk. Her family recipe used just 2 cups of water. To me this is very sweet. If you don't have a very sweet tooth cut down on the sugar used in the recipe. I like it best cold (it tastes less sweet then when its warm) and serve it as a dessert after an Indian dinner, cut in wedges or diamond shapes and sprinkled with some very finely chopped nuts. It reheats easy in the microwave if you should prefer it warm. Ghee/clarified butter is sold in Asian supermarkets. If you want serve with some whipped cream.

- Put the semolina in a heavy bottom dry pan, cook over a medium heat until it turns a light golden brown, this is the tricky part because when you think nothing is happening it burns.
- The browning can take approx 10 minutes, shake the pan at times.
- Put the browned semolina aside.
- Boil the water and milk in another pan, add the sugar, salt, cardamom and the coconut, simmer Melt the ghee and fry the nuts and sultanas on a medium heat for a few minutes, add the nuts and the ghee to the water/milk mixture.
- Then add the semolina, stirring all the time, it will thicken gradually, mine is usually ready in 5 minutes.
- You are looking for the consistency of soft mashed potatoes.
- Transfer to a serving dish.
- Serve hot, warm or cold.

I live in Maui and when it's mango season everyone shares their crop, so you get to try different varieties. I like the Hayden because it's big , but mangos from the supermarket, diced mangoes from the refrigerated section or frozen can be used in this recipe. - Lillian Takaki, Wailuku, Hawaii
