Preparation Steps
1
Peel the mangoes, then purée the fruit until smooth.
2
Whisk the egg yolks with the powdered sugar until you get a light, frothy, and creamy mixture.
3
In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the mango purée. When it starts to simmer, pour it into the egg mixture while whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from curdling.
4
Return the mango-egg mixture to the stovetop and continue stirring constantly until the mixture thickens slightly and becomes creamy.
5
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip it, so it maintains a creamy consistency.
6
Gently fold the whipped cream into the mango mixture. Using a spatula, be careful not to deflate the cream, so it retains its light texture.
7
Pour the mixture into a dish or a silicone mold and place it in the freezer. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours, but the flavors will meld even better if left overnight.
8
5 minutes before serving, remove the parfait from the freezer to make it easier to slice. Dip a knife in warm water to easily cut through the parfait.
