Mango galettes with berry fool

Mango galettes with berry fool

Serves 4

Cooking Time Prep time 15 mins, cook 20 mins



375 gm   butter puff pastry (see note)
20 gm   melted butter
2   mangoes, cheeks removed, peeled and thinly sliced lengthways
30 gm   demerara sugar
10 gm   caster sugar
2 tsp   finely grated lemon rind
To serve:   strawberries and raspberries
Berry fool
50 gm   strawberries, hulled and coarsely chopped
40 gm   pure icing sugar
50 gm   raspberries
450 gm   crème fraîche
20 ml   limoncello liqueur


1 Preheat oven to 180C. Cut four 11cm-squares from pastry and place on a baking paper-lined oven tray. Make a shallow incision (don’t cut all the way through the pastry) 1cm in from all sides of pastry squares to form a border, then prick inside squares using a fork. Brush with melted butter, then layer mango slices to fit within borders. Brush mango lightly with butter.
2 Combine sugars and lemon rind in a small bowl, then scatter over pastry squares. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and glazed. Cool for 5 minutes on tray, then transfer to a wire rack.
3 Meanwhile, for berry fool, combine strawberries and half the icing sugar in a bowl and, using a fork, coarsely crush strawberries. Add raspberries and stir through. In a separate bowl, whisk crème fraîche, limoncello and remaining icing sugar until soft peaks form, then gently fold through berry mixture to create a rippled effect. Refrigerate until required.
4 Serve mango galettes, warm or at room temperature, with extra fruit and berry fool.

Note We used Carême Butter Puff Pastry, which comes pre-rolled, see www.caremepastry.com. You can also use frozen butter puff pastry sheets from supermarkets.
