Mango Strudel With Vanilla Lime Sauce
Instructions:
- FOR THE STRUDEL
- 3 Mangoes; (1 pound each) cut into 1−inch chunks (3 cups)
- 2 Tablespoon Sugar; depending upon sweetness of the fruit, up to 3
- 6 Tablespoon Dry bread crumbs
- 1/2 Cup Finely chopped pecans
- 6 Sheets frozen; thawed phyllo leaves (16 x 2 inches each)
- 6 Tablespoon Melted butter for phyllo dough
- 6 Tablespoon Melted unsalted butter
- Confectioners\' sugar for serving
- FOR THE SAUCE
- 2 Cup Melted vanilla ice cream
- 6 Tablespoon Fresh lime juice
- TO MAKE THE STRUDEL:
- Preheat the oven to 400 F. In a mixing bowl, combine the mangoes, sugar, lime zest, 2 tablespoons of bread crumbs and pecans.
- Spread the phyllo leaves on a damp cloth towel covering the top with another damp towel so the leaves do not dry out as you are working.
- Place one phyllo leaf on a clean dry cloth towel and brush it with melted butter using a pastry brush. Sprinkle the dough with 2 teaspoons dry bread crumbs. Place a second leaf of phyllo on top, brush with melted butter and sprinkle with bread crumbs. Repeat this procedure with all of the phyllo leaves.
- Place the mango filling in a 3−inch strip along the longer edge of the dough, to within 1 1/2 inches of the sides. Fold the sides over the filling and roll the dough into a jelly roll shape using the cloth to help you.
- Transfer the strudel onto a non−stick baking sheet, seam side down. Brush the top with melted butter and bake for about 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool for 30 minutes before serving.
