There’s no fruit capable of spelling dessert better than - M-A-N-G-O. The juicy mango is quite versatile when it comes to being treated as an ingredient in sweet dishes. From mango custard to mango phirni, this humble fruit spruces up the palette of the dessert it is used in. Mangoes are delicious and have many health benefits as well. They are a great source of vitamins and minerals and are particularly high on magnesium and potassium, which helps to lower blood pressure. Furthermore, mangos are the source of a compound called as Mangifera, which could reduce inflammation of the heart. Mangoes also help to stabilize your digestive system.
While there are many dessert recipes in which one could incorporate this fruit, however, when the mango is paired with creamy and sinful scoop of Rabri in particular, magic unfolds. For the uninitiated, Rabri is a sweet, condensed-milk-based dish, made by boiling milk on low heat for a long time until it becomes dense and changes its colour to off-white or pale yellow. Mango and Rabri make for a decadent dessert that will impress your guests at every party! This Mango stuffed with delicious Rabri is a show stealer on the menu.
