Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp plain pasteurised full-fat lower-salt cottage cheese (cow's milk)
  • 1/4 ripe mango, peeled and cut away from its stone
  • 1–2 tbsp safe water to thin as necessary

Preparation

  1. Wash and peel ripe mango, cut the soft flesh away from the large central stone and check for stringy or firm pieces.

  2. Mash the mango completely or blend smooth; if it is too firm, soften it with brief gentle cooking first.

  3. Mix with plain pasteurised lower-salt cottage cheese, crushing curds to a soft, moist consistency.

  4. Add safe water in small amounts until the mixture is spoonable with no tough mango fibres or firm curds.

  5. Offer cool and freshly prepared, keeping the cheese refrigerated until service.
