Ingredients:
1 lime, juice of
250g natural coconut milk yogurt
250g good-quality mango pulp
2 tbsp agave syrup
2 tbsp caster sugar
1⁄2 tsp cardamom seeds from about 12 green cardamom pods, crushed
1 tbsp dairy-free butter
2 tbsp maple syrup
50g macadamia nuts
Method:
1 Add the lime juice to the coconut yogurt and mix thoroughly to loosen the yogurt a little.
2 Add the mango pulp and agave syrup and mix thoroughly again. Chill the mixture in the fridge for at least an hour. Freeze the mixture in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer’s instructions – but remember the longer you churn, the greater the chance of air getting into the mixture and causing ice crystals.
3 If you’re not using an ice cream machine, freeze the mixture in a sealable container, churning manually two or three times during the first few hours of freezing.
4 To make the nuts, combine the caster sugar and crushed cardamom seeds and set aside in a bowl.
5 Melt the dairy-free butter and maple syrup in a frying pan and stir in the nuts. Cook on a medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring often, until the nuts are coloured and caramelised.
Remove the nuts with a metal slotted spoon and stir them into the sugar coating. Spread them out on a sheet of baking paper to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
