Korean Shaved Ice Mango Bingsu  

– 400 ml milk – ▢2 tbsp sweetened condensed milk

Ingredient

topping – ▢1 scoop vanilla ice cream – ▢200 g fresh or frozen mango , cut into cube – ▢roasted shaved almonds , optional – ▢a drizzle of condensed milk , optional

mango puree – ▢250 g fresh or frozen mango , chopped – ▢1 tbsp sugar – ▢a few lemon drop – ▢60 ml water

In a blender, combine the mango, sugar, lemon, and water until a thin puree forms. Cook the puree in a pot over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes, or until the sugar dissolves.  

Instruction

Transfer the puree to a jar and refrigerate for at least one hour. There is no need to cook. But if you cook the puree of mango, then it would produce a smoother and creamier texture but toughens the mango's taste. 

Mix milk to sweetened condensed milk. Pour the milk into the zip-lock bag and seal it securely. Use a zip bag large enough so that when you lay the milk flat, it is no higher than 0.5 cm / 0.2 inch. 

If you use an ice shaver, pour the milk and condensed milk into the appropriate containers. Freeze for at least 5 hours, preferably overnight. 

Once the milk has been thoroughly frozen, break it up with your hands and smash it even further using a rolling pin. If using an ice shaver, place the milk blocks inside and shave.

Place shaved ice in a big basin. Garnish with mango cubes and a scoop of vanilla ice cream in the center.

Pour the mango puree over top. Drizzle with some condensed milk. Add some shaved almonds.
