Mango is decidedly the most popular fruit amongst millions of people in the Orient, particularly in the Pakistan Sub Continent where it is considered to be choicest of all indigenous fruits.

In fact, it will be no exaggeration to say that because of its excellent flavour, attractive fragrance, beautiful shades of colours, delicious taste and healthful value.

Mango is now recognized as one of the best fruits in the world market..
 

MANGO SHAKE
Take ripe mangoes, wash, clean and  extract 2 Ibs. pulp. Add 1/4 Ib. sugar,  2 Ibs. boiled milk (as per taste) and mix well in blender. Cool in freezer and serve.
 

MANGO PREPARATION
 Lay the Mango on its side - its central flat stone will naturally fall parallel to the work surface.

1 Cut the fruit lengthways parallel to the work surface above and below the stone into thirds.

2. From the middle third, cut away the flesh from around the stone and peel the skin.

3. Further prepare the two sections without the stone by cutting them into slices and then peeling the skin from each slice.

Alternatively, make cubes by cutting a criss-cross pattern into the flesh with a knife and then pushing the skin side upwards of the centre to open up. With a sharp knife, cut the cubes away from the skin.
