Have you read my aamras recipe? Today I bring to you another mango based delicacy named mango mastani.
Though the summer is coming to an end, mango season is still on. Mango is a seasonal fruit and you should make sure that your little one has it in the form of puree, juice or pulp.
Now coming to today’s recipe, mango mastani is a dessert drink that is originated from Pune. It is named after the Pune Peshwa (Emperor) Bajirao’s second wife Mastani.
Though I hail from Mumbai I had never tasted this dessert mango mastani until my neighbor here in Middle East prepared and gave it to me. I had never imagined of having something so delicious made up of mangoes!
Mango mastani is a thick milkshake scooped with ice cream and dry fruits. I am sure your toddler or kid will love it.
I did try my hands on the alphonso mangoes at home and churned out my version of mango mastani. Wow what a perfect way to beat the summer heat with fresh ripe mangoes turned into a delicious dessert!!
