Getting ready for summer

{ healthy mango mouse }

This is a easy recipe I've been willing to share for a few weeks, made twice, but still got no good picture yet... So I got these pictures from mango.org, which I didn't even knew to exist!
The following recipe is based on a recipe made by my boyfriend's mother. Since it's lower in fat than regular versions, I leave it as a suggestion for those of you who, as me, are making plans to go to the beach in the near future ;)
I was just thinking... Aren't mangoes very Portugal-colored?!



Mousse de Manga Light
ou quase pudim ;)
Ingredientes:
- 1 lata grande de polpa de manga
- 8 iogurtes (naturais, gregos ou não, utilizei metade de cada)
- 12 folhas de gelatina
- 50g ou mais de açúcar, conforme o gosto

Preparação:
1) Dissolver as folhas de gelatina num pouco de água bem quente,
2) Bater os iogurtes, a polpa e o açúcar,
3) Acrescentar a gelatina dissolvida e bater novamente,
4) Levar ao frigorífico pelo menos 3 horas.

There's something spicy about mangoes...

{ sweet and spicy curry-mango shrimp pasta }


The sweetness of the mango brings a refreshing twist to this slightly spicy curry pasta dish. The freshly chopped cilantro on top is a definitive must.
