Drain the mango fruit and puree. Season with lemon juice and possibly rose water. Stir in almonds and 1 tbsp. pistachios. Whip cream until stiff and fold in carefully. Chill the cream for about 45 minutes
Peel the fresh mango and cut the flesh into slices from the core. Arrange the mango-almond cream on four dessert plates and sprinkle with remaining pistachios. Decorate with mint if desired.
- Canned mangos are usually offered in the supermarket with the canned fruit or in the Asia shop
- Rose water, a popular ingredient in oriental cuisine, is available at the pharmacy. Can be replaced by cherry brandy (contains alcohol!)
- The mango-almond cream also tastes good as a half-frozen dish. To avoid large ice crystals, you should stir it several times with a hand blender while freezing
