Directions
Comment. I adore fresh ripe mangoes, Here is a wonderful recipe for fresh ripe tropical fruits.
Melt butter in skillet. add brown sugar. Mix in juice and cook over medium heat and bring to a boil. Lower heat and add fruit and simmer till warm about 5 minutes. Heat brandy in small pan. Ignite. BE CAREFUL DOING THIS.
when flames dies out, add to fruit and stir in. Looks wonderful when served in a coconut bowl but also pretty in glass dishes. Top with ice cream and chopped nuts.
Note: just stir in some coconut extract into vanilla ice cream for a coconut flavor if you cant find real coconut ice cream. Serves 4 and double if desired.
