Ingredients

75g caster sugar
Knob of butter
2 ripe mangoes, skinned, stoned and cut lengthways into wedges
Grated zest and juice of 1 large orange
2 tbsp shelled unsalted pistachios, roughly chopped
Vanilla ice cream to serve

Method

Heat a frying pan over a medium heat and cook the sugar until it starts to melt and turn golden. Add the butter and mango wedges (take care as the mixture may spatter) and cook for a couple of minutes until the mango is nicely coated in the sugary syrup.
Add the orange zest and juice, then simmer for 2 minutes. Serve hot with a sprinkling of pistachios and some vanilla ice cream.
