Mango twist on the traditional Mahalabia recipe

When I was searching for desserts for Abu Dhabi, I came across traditional Mahalabia and then the kids spotted the Mango version. Given how much they adore Mango there was no going back after that. The recipe is fairly simple and probably quick if you have made custard before – I hadn’t and was terrified of the milk catching so heated it so slowly that it took an hour and a half to make instead of 10 minutes! Tip there is to be a bit more aggressive with the heat in the beginning.

The kids were the first to try the pudding and rather disappointingly the eldest one didn’t like it. He announced, ‘It’s not for me.’ I almost fell over, it is the most polite I have ever heard him. Normally he shreks, ‘It’s disgusting, yuck!’ and then the younger one refuses to try it. He won massive brownie points for this and I am hoping to hear only ‘It’s not for me.’ in the future.

The good news is my daughter adored it and is delighted her brother left his as she can have it tomorrow for pudding. Everyone is a winner.

The colours are beautiful in this dish. Thank you Lins Food for the recipe.
