Mango lime pie

Mango - Part 3.

A great treat for the kids, and the fresh fruit adds to the dessert's nutritional value.

1 packet short crust pastry
1 block cream cheese
2 eggs
1/4 cup castor sugar
1/2 cup single cream
3 tsp lemon zest
1/4 cup lemon juice
3/4 cup fresh mango puree
2 mangoes, skinned and sliced

Method:
1. Roll out the short crust pastry and place it on a pie tin. Make a few holes on the pastry with a fork.
2. Put in a pre-heated 175 deg C oven for 10 minutes, until half-baked.
3. Blend the cream cheese, eggs and sugar in a bowl until creamy. Add in cream, lemon zest and lemon juice. Mix well.
4. Fold the mango puree into the cream cheese mixture. Then spread it on the par-baked pastry and bake for 20 minutes at 175 deg C.
5. When it's done, decorate the pie with fresh mango slices. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
