mangoes and lychees with saffron cream - Serves 4
Every summer, thousands of baskets of pink and gold, sweet Alphonso
mangoes, considered to be the best variety, make their way across
India as friends send them to each other in a gesture of goodwill.
The markets are scented with their fragrance and every home has
slices of the fruit chilled in the refrigerator to offer to guests
who visit. This wonderfully dessert combines this exquisite fruit
with a gentle saffron cream.
