Print Recipe

A quick and easy homemade summer dessert that combines sweet mangoes, tangy lime, and a subtle chili kick for a refreshing and vibrant frozen treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups ripe mangoes, peeled and chopped (about 450 grams)
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (60 ml)
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (preferably ancho chili powder)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (30 ml)
  • 1/2 cup water (120 ml)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Peel and chop about 3 cups (450 grams) of ripe mango flesh. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup (60 ml) fresh lime juice, 2 tablespoons (30 ml) honey or agave syrup, 1/2 cup (120 ml) water, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the honey dissolves completely.
  3. Add the chopped mangoes, liquid mixture, and 1/2 teaspoon (about 1 gram) chili powder to your blender or food processor. Blend on high until silky smooth.
  4. Taste and adjust by adding more lime juice for tanginess or a tiny pinch of chili powder for heat if desired.
  5. Pour the sorbet base into a freezer-safe container. Freeze for about 30 minutes, then stir vigorously with a fork or whisk to break up ice crystals. Repeat stirring every 30 minutes for about 2 hours until firm but scoopable.
  6. Serve scooped into bowls or cones, garnished with a sprinkle of chili powder or a thin lime wedge.

Notes

Use ripe mangoes for best sweetness and texture. Stir the sorbet every 30 minutes during freezing to prevent ice crystals and achieve a smooth texture. Let sorbet soften at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping if too hard. Fresh lime juice is preferred over bottled for brightness. Adjust chili powder to taste. Frozen mango chunks can be used if fresh mangoes are not in season; thaw slightly before blending.
