Provided by Nathan Ng

Categories     Desserts

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 egg
½ cup butter, softened and cut into 1-inch (2 1/2 cm) cubes
⅔ cup sugar
2 cups flour
2 mangoes
2 oz cream cheese, softened
⅓ cup greek yogurt
½ teaspoon orange zest
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
  • In a large bowl, beat the egg.
  • Add the butter and sugar, and mix.
  • Add the flour and mix until combined. The dough will be crumbly in your hand.
  • Transfer the crust mixture into a greased 8-inch (20 cm) tart pan one handful at a time, pressing it down to create an even, thin layer over the entire pan, about ¼ inch (6 mm).
  • NOTE: Freeze and save remaining pie crust crumble for later.
  • Prick the crust with a fork to prevent it from puffing up in the oven.
  • Bake the crust for 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • On a cutting board, cut a half inch (1 cm) off the bottom and top off the mango to give it a flat base. Standing it upright, make exterior slices from the top to bottom to take the skin off.
  • Remove the meat from the sides and thinly slice.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, orange zest, sugar, orange juice, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly.
  • Transfer the yogurt mixture to the cooled tart crust.
  • Starting from the outer edge, place mango slices in a circular pattern, making full rotations all the way to the center.
  • Chill the fruit tart for at least an hour.
  • Enjoy!

Mango-Key Lime Tart image

Fresh lime zest and juice are best for this tart. If you can't get Key limes (sometimes called West Indian or Mexican limes), use regular (Persian) limes, or even lemons!

Time 4h

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 graham crackers (each 3 by 5 inches), broken into pieces
2 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

MANGO TART WITH TEQUILA-LIME GLAZE



Mango Tart with Tequila-Lime Glaze image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     dessert

Time 4h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cubed
1 tablespoon lime zest (from 2 to 3 limes)
2 large egg yolks
Nonstick cooking spray, for spraying the tart pan
8 ounces cubed ripe mango
1/4 cup lime juice (from 3 to 4 limes)
4 teaspoons unflavored gelatin (2 packets)
One 13.5-ounce can coconut milk (about 1 3/4 cups)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 ripe mango
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon tequila blanco
Zest of 1 lime plus 1 tablespoon lime juice

Steps:

  • For the lime shortbread crust: Position an oven rack in the top third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Add the flour, granulated sugar and salt to a food processor and pulse 2 to 3 times to combine. Add the cold butter cubes and pulse until the butter breaks down into small, uniform-size pieces, about the size of small pebbles. Add the lime zest and egg yolks and process a few more seconds or until the mixture looks like wet sand; the dough will not come together into a ball.
  • Spray a 9-inch nonstick tart pan lightly with cooking spray, making sure to spray the sides of the pan as well as the bottom. Pour the dough into the tart pan and spread evenly. Using your hands, press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. To prevent any dough from falling out of the pan, place your left thumb over the top of the pan along the crust and press the dough up the sides with your right pointer finger. This way, you will tightly pack the dough along the sides with your pointer finger and stop it at the top of the pan with your left thumb. Continue to press the dough into the pan and along the sides until it is tightly packed and evenly distributed. Poke the bottom of the crust with a fork all over and then place the tart pan on a baking sheet.
  • Bake until the sides of the crust are a deep golden brown and the crust bottom is light golden brown on top, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • For the mango filling: Add the mango and lime juice to a blender and puree on high speed for 1 minute until completely smooth. Hold in the blender.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the gelatin and 1/2 cup of the coconut milk. Let stand 5 minutes. As the gelatin rehydrates, the coconut milk will begin to look curdled; don't worry--it isn't.
  • Set a medium saucepan over medium heat and add the granulated sugar, salt and remaining coconut milk (about 1 1/4 cups). Stir the mixture together and bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer until the sugar melts completely; the coconut milk will become opaque. Remove from the heat and immediately whisk in the gelatin mixture. until completely melted. Strain the mango mixture into the coconut milk mixture and whisk again to combine. Let the mixture cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes.
  • Using a hand mixer, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the mango filling and then pour the entire filling into the cooled tart crust; the filling will come to the very top of the crust. Refrigerate for 2 hours to set the filling completely. You can make the tart up to this point 1 day in advance.
  • For the tequila-lime glaze: Line a baking sheet with a cooling rack. Cut the 2 larger sides of the mango off of the pit, followed by the 2 smaller sides. Peel the 4 pieces of mango, then cut them into 1/4-inch half-moon slices.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioner' sugar, tequila and lime juice. Dip each slice of mango into the glaze and coat completely. Let drip dry over the bowl for a few seconds, then lay the mango pieces on the cooling rack for at least 15 minutes for the glaze to set.
  • When ready to serve, remove the tart from the tart pan and place on a cake stand. Lay the mango slices in a circle around the tart, setting aside the smallest slice for later; the mango slices will meet in the center of the tart and then fan out overlapping each other around the tart. Roll the reserved mango slice into a rosette and place in the center of the tart. Garnish with the lime zest and serve immediately.

For crust
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut (1 3/4 ounce)
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
7 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
1/3 cup confectioners sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
For filling
2 1/2 cups chopped ripe mango (from two 1-pound mangoes) plus 1 1/2 cups diced (1/3-inch) firm-ripe mango (from one 1-pound mango)
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin (from 1 envelope)
1/3 cup well-chilled heavy cream
Special Equipment
a 9-inch round fluted tart pan (1 inch deep) with a removable bottom

Steps:

  • Toast coconut for crust:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Spread coconut in an even layer in a pie plate and toast in middle of oven, stirring occasionally, until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. (Leave oven on for baking crust.) Cool coconut to room temperature, about 10 minutes.
  • Make crust:
  • Pulse together flour, coconut, butter, confectioners sugar, and salt in a food processor until dough just begins to form a ball. Press dough onto bottom and up side of tart pan with floured fingers, then freeze until firm, about 10 minutes. Bake in pan on a baking sheet in middle of oven until golden, about 25 minutes, then cool completely in pan on a rack.
  • Prepare filling while crust bakes:
  • Purée chopped mango (2 1/2 cups) with sugar, lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a food processor until smooth, about 1 minute. Sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup purée in a heatproof bowl and let stand to soften 1 minute. Set bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and stir until gelatin is dissolved. Remove bowl from heat and stir in remaining purée.
  • Beat cream in a large bowl with an electric mixer until it just holds stiff peaks, then fold in purée. Set bowl with filling in a larger bowl of ice and cold water and chill, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Assemble tart:
  • Remove side of tart pan and spoon filling into crust, smoothing top. Chill, loosely covered, until filling is set, at least 8 hours. Before serving, let stand at room temperature at least 15 minutes but no longer than 30, then scatter diced mango over top of tart, leaving a 2-inch border around edge.

GINGER MANGO CREAM TART



Ginger Mango Cream Tart image

Festive enough for a holiday party or a summer cookout, this bright and creamy mango tart has a crisp gingersnap crust and is topped with candied ginger, pistachios and toasted coconut. The no-bake crust, which is made from store bought gingersnaps, butter and light brown sugar, comes together in the food processor with the press of a button. For the filling, fresh or frozen mango is cooked with ginger and turmeric to deepen its flavor and brighten the color of the finished dessert.

Provided by Erin Jeanne McDowell

Categories     cakes, pies and tarts, dessert

Time 35m

Yield One 9-inch cake (8 to 10 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 14

12 ounces/340 grams gingersnap cookies, about 48 (2-inch) cookies
1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
1/4 cup/55 grams light brown sugar
Pinch of fine sea salt
16 ounces/455 grams cubed fresh mango (or thawed, frozen mango)
1/2 cup/100 grams granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
3/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 1/2 teaspoons powdered gelatin
16 ounces/455 grams cream cheese, at room temperature
3/4 cup/90 grams confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup/120 milliliters heavy cream
Sliced candied ginger, chopped pistachios, toasted coconut, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare the crust: Add the gingersnaps to a food processor, roughly breaking them as you go, then pulse them into fine crumbs. (You should have about 2 1/4 cups). Add the melted butter, light brown sugar and salt to combine. Transfer the mixture to a 9-inch springform pan, then press it evenly into the base and halfway up the sides of the pan. Freeze while you make the filling.
  • Prepare the filling: In a medium saucepan, heat the mango, sugar, ginger, turmeric and salt over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mango is very soft and starts to break down, 8 to 12 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes.
  • Place 3 tablespoons cool water in a small microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin over the water and let bloom for 5 minutes. Microwave until fluid, 15 to 30 seconds. (Alternatively, the bowl of gelatin can be placed over a small pot of simmering water until melted.)
  • Wipe out the bowl of the food processor, add the mango mixture and pulse until mostly smooth. Add the cream cheese and confectioners' sugar and pulse until combined and smooth. Scrape the bowl well, then pulse again to combine. Add the cream and process for 1 minute. Finally, add the melted gelatin and pulse briefly to combine.
  • Transfer the mixture to the chilled crust and gently spread into an even layer. Wrap the pan in plastic wrap, transfer to the refrigerator, and chill for 12 hours (or up to 24 hours).
  • Gently run a small offset spatula or thin knife around the outer edge of the cake to loosen the crust, then release the outer ring. Run a large thin knife between the springform base and the bottom of the cake and use a large spatula to gently transfer the cake to a serving platter. (Alternatively, you can keep the cake on the base and transfer them together to a serving platter.)
  • If using any of the garnishes, sprinkle them around the outside edge just before slicing and serving.

MANGO-COCONUT CREAM TART



Mango-Coconut Cream Tart image

Two whirls collide on our mangoâ€"coconut cream tart: squiggles of barely sweet whipped cream and corkscrews of slightly tart mango. Underneath it all is a chewy coconut filling and a flaky pate brisee crust.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Time 3h45m

Yield Makes one 12-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for surface
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 stick plus 3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/4 to 1/3 cup ice water
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup light-brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons fine cornmeal
2 large eggs plus 1 large yolk
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/4 cups unsweetened small dried coconut flakes, toasted
2 firm, ripe mangoes (preferably Champagne; 1 1/4 pounds total)
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 1/2 cups very cold heavy cream
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
2 teaspoons water

Steps:

  • Make the pate brisee: Pulse flour, salt, and granulated sugar in a food processor until combined. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, 8 to 10 seconds. Drizzle 1/4 cup ice water evenly over mixture. Pulse until mixture holds together when pressed between 2 fingers (dough should not be wet or sticky). If dough is too dry, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse. Shape dough into a disk, and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day. Let stand at room temperature 5 minutes before rolling.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Roll out pate brisee into a 15-inch round (1/8 inch thick) on a lightly floured surface. Fit dough into a 12 1/2-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom, pressing dough well into pan's edge. Trim edge flush with top rim of pan. Prick bottom all over with a fork. Freeze until hard, about 20 minutes. Line with parchment, pressing parchment deep into corners of pan so it is flush with dough and leaving a 3-inch overhang. Fold overhang over dough edge so it is not exposed. Fill with pie weights or dried beans, and bake until edge of shell begins to turn golden, about 30 minutes, rotating halfway through. Remove weights and parchment. Reduce temperature to 325 degrees. Tent edge with foil, and bake until golden brown, 25 to 27 minutes more. Let cool slightly, about 20 minutes.
  • Make the filling: Mix together granulated and brown sugars, salt, and cornmeal. Whisk in eggs, yolk, and vanilla; then butter and coconut. Spread filling into tart shell. Bake until just set and lightly golden, 22 to 24 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • Make the topping: Peel mangoes, and cut in half, removing pits. Brush with lemon juice. Very thinly slice each half crosswise. Beat together cream and confectioners' sugar until medium peaks form. Spread one-third of cream mixture over top of filling. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a large open star tip (such as Ateco #829) with remaining cream mixture, and pipe randomly spaced swirls of cream. Twist 3 to 5 mango slices at a time into spirals, and nestle between cream swirls. Heat corn syrup and water until combined. Brush mango spirals with syrup. Refrigerate tart until chilled, about 20 minutes and up to 4 hours.

MANGO CUSTARD TART



Mango Custard Tart image

As I continue to enter dessert recipes from our recent cruise, I am seeing a definite & freq trend for make-ahead combos using fruits w/a custard. This recipe from *Carnival Creations* by Cyrus Marfatia (Exec Chef of Carnival Cruise Lines) takes us to the far-eastern cuisines of India, Malaysia & Thailand. Altho the recipe suggests the French influence of Napoleon Brandy, my DH would look upon that as a "sinful waste" & I will use a more std cooking brandy. (Times have been estimated & do not include cooling times) *Enjoy* !

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Yield Makes one 9-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 5

All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/2 recipe Pate Sucree for Mango Tart
1/2 recipe Lime Curd for Mango Tart
2 ripe mangoes, peeled
1/4 cup apricot jam

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll out piecrust to a 1/8-inch thickness. Transfer the crust to a 9-inch-round tart pan with removable bottom, and press it into the bottom edges and up the sides. Use a rolling pin to trim the dough flush with the edges of the pan. Lighly prick the bottom of the dough with a fork. Transfer crust to refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the crust from the refrigerator, and carefully line it with parchment paper, gently pressing the parchment into the edges of the crust; weigh down parchment with dried beans or pie weights.
  • Bake until the edges of the pastry begin to turn golden, about 15 minutes. Carefully remove the pie weights and the parchment paper. Continue to bake until crust is golden brown in color, 15 to 20 minutes more. Transfer the crust to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • When tart shell is completely cool, fill with lime curd using a small offset spatula to smooth top. Cut mango flesh away from pits, and slice to 1/8-inch thickness. Arrange fruit in a spiraling design on top of lime curd.
  • Place apricot jam and 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepan over medium heat until warm and thin. Pass mixture through a fine-mesh sieve. Using a pastry brush, coat mangoes with jam. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

LIME CURD FOR MANGO TART



Lime Curd for Mango Tart image

Use this recipe when making our Mango Tart. It makes enough to fill two 9-inch tart shells, three 3-by-14-inch rectangles, or up to four dozen 3-inch tartlets.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Yield Makes 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 large egg yolks
2 large whole eggs
1 cup (10 limes) freshly squeezed lime juice, strained
2 cups sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into tablespoon-size pieces
2 tablespoons freshly grated lime zest (optional)

Steps:

  • Whisk together egg yolks and whole eggs in a nonreactive saucepan. Add sugar and lime juice; whisk to combine.
  • Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens to almost puddinglike consistency, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat; transfer to a heat-proof bowl. Stir in butter one piece at a time, until fully incorporated. Stir in lime zest, if desired.
  • If not using immediately, cover surface directly with plastic wrap to keep a skin from forming, and refrigerate until ready to use.

Tips:

  • For the perfect pastry, use a combination of butter and shortening. This will help create a flaky, tender crust.
  • Be sure to chill the pastry dough before baking. This will help prevent it from shrinking in the oven.
  • Use ripe, juicy mangoes for the best flavor. If your mangoes are not ripe, you can ripen them by placing them in a paper bag with an apple or banana for a few days.
  • To prevent the mango filling from becoming too runny, toss the mango slices with a little bit of cornstarch before adding them to the tart.
  • Bake the tart until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Conclusion:

Mango tart is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy flavor, this tart is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give mango tart a try. You won't be disappointed!
