Provided by Pati Jinich

Categories     Dessert

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 ounces Maria Cookies ground to a fine crumb (about 2 cups cookie crumbs)
8 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
1/2 cup granulated sugar (divided)
1/2 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
1 large ripe mango (peeled, cored and cut into chunks (about 1-1½ cups))
1/3 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
3 egg yolks
1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup heavy cream (divided)
1/4 cup cream of coconut

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In the bowl of a food processor, or in a medium mixing bowl, pulse or stir together the cookie crumbs, butter, 1/4 cup of the sugar, and salt until completely combined. Press the mixture into a 9" tart pan so that it covers the bottom and the sides completely. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and baking sheet and cool on a rack until ready to use.
  • Add the mango chunks and lime juice to a blender and puree until very smooth. Add the egg yolks and the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and pulse a few times to combine. With blender running, steadily stream in the sweetened condensed milk until all is combined. Pour the mixture into the cooled tart shell and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until center is set. Allow to come to room temperature on a rack, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
  • While tart is chilling, in a small bowl, whisk the cream of coconut with 2 tablespoons of the heavy cream until the cream of coconut is dissolved. Add the coconut mixture and the remaining heavy cream to the bowl of a stand mixer, set with the whisk attachment. Whip until soft peaks form. Chill until ready to serve.
  • When ready to serve, remove the tart from the pan and top with the coconut whipped cream. Slice and serve.

MANGO-LIME CURD



Mango-Lime Curd image

This is a super-easy curd recipe that doesn't require straining, thermometers, boiling water, or anything else difficult. The food processor step and the low microwave settings do this for you! I use this as a filling in coconut-lime cupcakes with coconut-cream cheese frosting. Also fabulous by itself!

Yield Makes one 9-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 5

All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/2 recipe Pate Sucree for Mango Tart
1/2 recipe Lime Curd for Mango Tart
2 ripe mangoes, peeled
1/4 cup apricot jam

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll out piecrust to a 1/8-inch thickness. Transfer the crust to a 9-inch-round tart pan with removable bottom, and press it into the bottom edges and up the sides. Use a rolling pin to trim the dough flush with the edges of the pan. Lighly prick the bottom of the dough with a fork. Transfer crust to refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the crust from the refrigerator, and carefully line it with parchment paper, gently pressing the parchment into the edges of the crust; weigh down parchment with dried beans or pie weights.
  • Bake until the edges of the pastry begin to turn golden, about 15 minutes. Carefully remove the pie weights and the parchment paper. Continue to bake until crust is golden brown in color, 15 to 20 minutes more. Transfer the crust to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • When tart shell is completely cool, fill with lime curd using a small offset spatula to smooth top. Cut mango flesh away from pits, and slice to 1/8-inch thickness. Arrange fruit in a spiraling design on top of lime curd.
  • Place apricot jam and 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepan over medium heat until warm and thin. Pass mixture through a fine-mesh sieve. Using a pastry brush, coat mangoes with jam. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

LIME CURD TART



Lime Curd Tart image

I like lime curd with character. Lime curd is wonderful on a slice of toast, for dipping long-stemmed strawberries in, or to serve with pound cake and fresh fruit. Here we use it to fill a prebaked tart shell. Grating the zest in the food processor is very quick. Lime curd lasts for weeks in the refrigerator.

Time 3h45m

Yield 1 (9 or 10-inch) tart

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
Pinch salt
4 limes at room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 pound unsalted butter at room temperature
4 extra-large eggs at room temperature
1/8 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix the butter and sugar together until they are just combined. Add the vanilla. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour and salt, then add them to the butter-and-sugar mixture. Mix on low speed until the dough starts to come together. Dump onto a surface dusted with flour and shape into a flat disk. Press the dough into a 10-inch-round or 9-inch-square false-bottom tart pan, making sure that the finished edge is flat. Chill until firm.
  • Butter 1 side of a square of aluminum foil to fit inside the tart and place it, buttered side down, on the pastry. Fill with beans or rice. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and beans, prick the tart all over with the tines of a fork, and bake again for 20 to 25 minutes more, or until lightly browned. Allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Remove the zest of 4 limes with a vegetable peeler or zester, being careful to avoid the white pith. Squeeze the limes to make 1/2 cup of juice and set the juice aside. Put the zest in a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Add the sugar and process for 2 to 3 minutes, until the zest is very finely minced. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter with the sugar and lime zest. Add-- the eggs, 1 at a time, and then add the lime juice and salt. Mix until combined.
  • Pour the mixture into a 2-quart saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 10 minutes. The lime curd will thicken at about 175 degrees F, or just below a simmer. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Fill the tart shell with warm lime curd and allow to set at room temperature. Once set, serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Categories     Food Processor     Dairy     Egg     Dessert     Bake     Lime     Coconut     Mango     Macadamia Nut     Pistachio     Chill     Simmer     Candy Thermometer     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

For crust
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
2 cups roasted macadamia nuts (about 10 ounces)
1 1/2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
1 1/4 cups shelled pistachios (about 5 ounces)
1/2 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
3 large egg whites
For lime curd
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup fresh lime juice
10 large egg yolks
1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 mangoes, peeled, pitted, sliced
1/4 cup guava jelly or red currant jelly

Steps:

  • Make crust:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray eight 4-inch-diameter tartlet pans with removable bottoms with vegetable oil spray. Combine macadamia nuts, coconut, pistachios and brown sugar in processor. Process until nuts are finely chopped. Transfer to large bowl. Beat egg whites in another large bowl until soft peaks form. Fold whites into nut mixture in 3 additions (mixture will be thick and sticky). Let mixture stand 10 minutes.
  • Using plastic wrap as aid, press about 1/3 cup nut mixture onto bottoms and up sides of each prepared pan. Place pans on baking sheet. Bake until crusts are puffed and begin to brown, about 20 minutes. Cool crusts in pans 5 minutes. Using oven mitt, gently remove pan sides; cool crusts completely on rack.
  • Make lime curd:
  • Whisk sugar, lime juice and yolks in large metal bowl to blend. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (do not allow bottom of bowl to touch water); whisk constantly until mixture thickens and candy thermometer registers 180°F., about 9 minutes. Remove bowl from over water. Gradually add chilled butter, whisking until melted and well blended. Press plastic wrap directly on surface of curd. Refrigerate until cold, about 3 hours. (Crusts and lime curd can be prepared 1 day ahead. Store crusts in airtight container at room temperature. Keep lime curd refrigerated.)
  • Fill each crust with 5 tablespoons lime curd. Arrange mango slices decoratively atop tartlets. Whisk guava jelly in heavy small saucepan over low heat until melted. Brush over mango slices. Chill at least 3 hours and up to 1 day.

Tips:

  • For a smoother curd, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve after cooking.
  • If you don't have a citrus zester, you can use a microplane grater to zest the limes.
  • To prevent the curd from curdling, whisk it constantly over medium-low heat.
  • If the curd does curdle, remove it from the heat and whisk in a tablespoon of cold water until it comes back together.
  • Lime curd can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • You can use lime curd as a filling for tarts, pies, and cakes.
  • Lime curd can also be used as a spread for toast, scones, and muffins.

Conclusion:

Lime curd is a versatile and delicious ingredient that can be used in a variety of desserts. It is easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Whether you are using it as a filling, a spread, or a dip, lime curd is sure to please everyone.
