Summer is synonymous with Mangoes in India. There are a variety of Juicy and Fleshy mangoes all over the place. Enjoyed eating both the varieties this season. Wanted to make a new recipe with mangoes and looked for simple recipes with mangoes , on the Internet.

Came across a recipe named ‘Mango Parfait’ . The recipe had very few ingredients and a very simple process.
