Mango ice cream is a basic ice cream flavored with fresh mangoes, fresh cream and condensed milk. You can make condensed milk also at home to avoid using the canned one. I used milkmaid condensed milk. It is super vegan recipe. I don’t use eggs in any of my recipes. The recipe to creamy ice cream is whisking it properly.
Some people suggest using milk powder to prevent the ice cream to getting crystal or icy in there. It helps to absorb the moisture in it. To avoid the moisture in the pulp of the mangoes, you can sieve the mango pulp to reduce the moisture.
The sweetness of the ice cream should be adjusted according to your taste. So you may add some sugar, or condensed milk to adjust the taste.
Dry fruits and nuts should be added after whipping.
Using milk powder and whisking the ice cream after 3-4 hours before refreezing it makes a lot of difference to your ice cream
