Fresh Mango Iced Yoghurt

A deliciously cooling frozen yoghurt ice cream, so simple to make, it's almost embarrassing!   I'm always looking out for lower fat alternatives to creamy puddings, and the present of a box of lovely ripe mangos inspired this pudding.  Serve with little biscuits and enjoy the hot weather while it lasts.



Fresh Mango Iced Yoghurt

1 pint/500ml tub of thick Greek yoghurt
2 ripe mangoes, the flesh cut into small pieces, almost puréed 
3oz/75g sugar (to taste)
Juice of half a lemon

Mix all the ingredients together and put into an ice cream maker.  Churn until thick.    The amount of sugar will depend on the sweetness of the mangoes - but make sure that the mixture tastes sweet before you freeze it – freezing makes the sugar lose its intensity.  

Home made iced yoghurts don't tend to keep their softness after the initial freezing, so you have to eat them up quickly!
