Description
A delicious twist on the classic tres leches cake, infused with the flavors of mango lassi.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 eggs, room temp and separated
- ¾ cup sugar divided into ½ cup and ¼ cup
- ½ tsp Vanilla
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ cup milk
- ¾ cup all purpose flour
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1.5 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp cream of tartar
- 1.5 cups chopped mango (frozen or fresh)
- ½ cup plain yogurt
- ¾ cup milk
- 2–4 tablespoon sugar as needed
- Pinch of cardamom powder
- 6 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 6 oz evaporated milk
- ½ cup milk
- 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
- More whipped cream and fresh mango for decoration
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350F (conventional) and line a 9×13″ tray with parchment paper.
- Into the egg yolks, add ½ cup sugar, salt, and vanilla, and whisk for 1-2 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Whisk in the milk, and then sift in the flour, cornstarch and baking powder. Whisk to combine. Do not overmix.
- Separately, to the egg whites, add the cream of tartar and start whisking (with a clean whisk) on medium speed. Once the egg whites look white and frothy, start adding the remaining ¼ cup sugar a little at a time while continuing to whisk. Keep whisking for a few minutes until a shiny, stiff and glossy meringue is formed.
- Add a third of the meringue into the egg yolk mixture and gently fold it in with a spatula. You have to be extra gentle and work slowly, as you don’t want to knock out the air we have whipped into the meringue. Then add the remaining meringue and fold in gently.
- Transfer the batter to the pan, and bake for about ~15 minutes or until done.
- Let the cake cool down.
Notes
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for best results.
- Adjust sugar in the mango lassi according to your taste preference.
- For decoration, use fresh mango slices and additional whipped cream.
