You like mangoes andy ?

[file photographs may or may not be simulated in the following story]

I have maybe 30 of these in the flat ripening at the moment. The aroma is like a drug. They gas off into the newspaper i have them wrapped in (helps ripen) and the hotter the day gets...the thicker the layers of smell hang in the air. Its so rich & smooth i wish i could have it all year round.

I think you would be lucky to find a house in this city that hasnt got a huge tree in the backyard covered in them. On behalf of Dgrin...i will eat maybe 20 today that are ripe & then go for a ride to get more from a friends tree.

By the time i get this new camera we may well be looking at the 2009 mango season.

'gus,

With all those mangos, you've gotta try at least one with sweet sticky rice.

If I remember correctly, you cook Jasmine sweet rice then combine it with
sweetened & condensed milk and cook it again.

Yummy Thai dessert.

Sounds like rice pudding.

Sounds like rice pudding.
Kinda. Maybe like the East Indian version but reduced. There
is no liquid to speak of in the rice--just a nice little mound of
it--ice cream scoop worth.

But I warn you. It's so filling it's like having a second dinner :lust
