Mango Cream Pie









For mother's day, a friend of mine gave me 2 yellow mangoes. Mangoes has to be my favorite fruit. My brother shared with me a mango cream pie recipe along with my friend's mother who made it out of mango puree. This recipe is sort of a combination of both.




The best mango cream pie has yet to be from Red Ribbon bakery...sweet crust, mangoes and whipped cream. For good results get sweet ripe mangoes for this recipe or add some white sugar to it. If you can't find any good mangoes, you can also try mango puree and just mix it with the cream mixture.








Ingredients:



2-3 cups of fresh yellow mangoes, ripe and sweet..cut thinly

1c organic heavy whipping cream

1 small can condensed milk

1/2 c hot water or hot mangoe puree (heated up)

2 sachets of Knox white gelating powder,

(2) Pilsbury ready made pie crustor or graham cracker crust, baked according to directions on package

1 tsp vanilla flavoring

1 Tbsp crushed graham cracker crumbs

Makes 2 pies.

Directions:



1. Arrange mangoes in cooled pie crust (pre baked). Mangoes should fill up pie plate. If mangoes aren't as sweet, then add 1-2T of white sugar and mix.

2. In a big bowl, pour cream and vanilla flavoring, whip until fluffy. Gradually add streams of condensed milk.


3. In a separate cup, mix Knox gelatin into hot water or hot mangoe juice. if there are lumps, use a strainer.  Put in refrigerator for 15 minutes until liquid cools enough to mix to the whipped cream.

4. Pour the gelatin mix  into whipped cream batter little at a time.

5. Put finished mixture on top of the mangoes. Sprinkle top with graham cracker crumbs and decorate with left over mango slices.

 Cover and Refrigerate covered until set.





alternative: used prebaked graham cracker crust. You can also mix the mangoe pieces in whipped cream

Jollibee fried peach mango pie

Hmmm.  I went to Jollibee in Jersey city, NJ to get one of the peach mango pies.  Unfortunately they were out, so I got the banana langka instead. Then I had one of those light bulb moments to make my own Peach mango pie.  Crazy huh?  The important thing was the filling.  The filling would be a little bit hard if the yellow ripe mangoes were out of season.  Luckily Del Monte now sells them in the little plastic cups.  Filling: 1 C of yellow sliced and cubed mangoes, ripe and peaches  or Del Monte cubed mangoes and peaches with syrup 2 T peach jam preserves 1T white sugar In a little saucepan, cook the mangoes in sugar for 1 minute in medium heat until mangoes soften.  Add the peach jam and mix. Simmer for another 1 minutes.   Transfer to a bowl and cool in refrigerator. Crust: Buy the PUFF pastry crust from the supermarket.  Lay out and cut in squares.   Add the mango peach filling.  Top with another square pastry crust and seal edges.  Freeze for about 1 hour till

Mom's Cooking

I was watching the show on Lifetime called Mom's cooking. This recipe was inpired by that show. This is called Salmon Wellington. Intead of puff pastry, I accidently got the phyllo dough. But still turned out well. I would cook this for a party gathering again, since it was easy to make and it's healthy. Ingredients: Puff Pastry crust (1 sheet for each salmon) 1-2 Salmon filets lemon salt and pepper egg white wash frozen spinach Mozorella cheese Directions: Season salmon with salt and pepper, squeeze some lemon and let sit. Defrost the puff pastry and and unroll. Place on filet of salmon in each crust. Top with a slice of mozorella and frozen spinach. Fold like a burrito. Brush with egg white wash. Bake in oven Preheated 425 F for 30 minutes or until brown.

MEATRoll

When I was a little girl, I used to eat the yummy meat filled bread pastry called meatroll in Angelica's bakery in JOnes Ave. Inside would be any kind of meat from Chicken Asado, adobo or beef. Thank God for breadmakers, I can make one of my own from home. Dough recipe: make the basic pandesal dough recipe. (From my previous post) I used leftover Chicken Adobo recipe (shred chicken meat and add boiled egg) or left over beef roast, cut in shreds ( Corned beef recipe .) After following pandesal procedures for rising the dough. Grab a fist size dough, flatten with your hand and add 1T of the meat preferred and boiled egg. Gather edges and seal to shape like a ball. Roll in breadcrumbs. Lay in pan, let rise 30 minutes covered just as you would do for a pandesal. Bake 375F preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until brown.
