Try this fantastically easy recipe for Thai mango ice cream. The texture of this frozen dessert is halfway between sorbet and ice cream and full of mango flavor. Quick and simple to make, it requires no stove or ice-cream maker, just a blender or food processor. Make this beautiful dessert to serve company; you can make it well in advance. It is delicious as is or served with slices of fresh mango or papaya and a little coconut rum/liqueur drizzled over the top.

“This is probably one of the easiest ice cream recipe that I've ever made. The fact that everything comes together in a food processor is so satisfying. The result is perfectly sweet and creamy ice cream. Next time I’ll add some lemon zest to the recipe as well.” —Tara Omidvar
