Mango purée
- Age: 6–8 months (First tastes)
- Texture: Purée
- Prep: 5 min
- Cook: 0 min
- Makes: 2 portions
Ingredients
- 1/2 ripe mango
Contains: None of the common allergens
Method
- Cut the mango cheeks off the stone and score the flesh.
- Scoop it out and blend or mash smooth — a ripe mango needs no cooking.
- Serve at room temperature.
Safety: Only ripe, soft mango for now. Underripe mango is firm and fibrous and the wrong texture for a first eater.
Storage: Fridge 1 day, freezer 1 month.
Tip: Fragrant, sweet, and a different colour from everything else so far. Ripe means it gives under your thumb and smells of mango at the stem.
