Mangos Diablo Flaming Dessert Recipe
Mangos were made to pair with tequila and lime. Here, a sprinkle of sea salt offers a nod toward the salt on the rim of a margarita glass.
Ingredients
| 3 | tablespoons | butter, cut into pieces |
| 3/4 | cup | dark brown sugar |
| 1 | tablespoon | Grand Marnier |
| 4 | ripe mangos, peeled, pitted and sliced | |
| 1/4 | cup | good quality white tequila |
| ~ | sea salt (optional for garnish) | |
Directions
- In a medium, heavy-bottomed pan melt the butter over medium-high heat.
- Whisk in the brown sugar. Cook the mixture for 5–6 minutes until it starts to caramelize.
- Stir in the Grand Marnier, lime juice and sliced mangos. Cook for another 3 minutes.
- Pour the tequila over the mangos and ignite with a long-stemmed match or lighter. Cook for another 2–3 minutes, until the flames burn off.
- Serve over vanilla ice cream and/or crêpes. Garnish with a pinch of sea salt if desired.
