Preparation: 30 minutes
Cooking: 1 litre
Ingredients
Ice-Cream:
- 400ml coconut milk

Method
- Ice-Cream: Place all the ingredients together in a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Pour the puree into an ice-cream machine and prepare following the machines instructions, until thick. Store the ice-cream in a well sealed container in the freezer. If you don't have an ice-cream machine place it in a freezer proof sealed container and place it in the freezer for 1 hour then remove it and stir, then return to the freezer and take it out and stir it every 30 minutes for a further 2 hours. Freeze until ready to serve.
- To Serve: Remove the ice-cream from the freezer 10 minutes before serving. Place a slice of mango in the centre of each bowl and place a scoop of the ice-cream on it. Scatter the rest of the fruit around the bowl and drizzle a little rum over them (optional). Serve at once.
