2 limes, zest grated
2 ripe mangoes
250g puff pastry
600g castor sugar
100ml passionfruit juice
100ml orange juice

Bring cream, milk, vanilla bean, lime zest to the boil.

Pour cream mixture into egg yolk mixture and whisk.

Return the mixture to the saucepan and heat, stirring over a medium heat for 4 minutes (until the mixture has thickened).

Chill for about 15 minutes.

Remove the logs from the fridge and cut into 1cm thick discs.

Lay pastry discs on castor sugar and roll to form an oval shape about 4mm thick.

Place on a baking tray and bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Remove from oven and allow to cool.

For the passionfruit sauce, blend passionfruit pulp with orange juice and strain to remove seeds.

Place juice into a saucepan with 125g of the castor sugar.

Bring to the boil.

Whisk in 20g of cornflour to thicken.

Remove from heat and allow to cool.

Peel mangoes and cut 4 cheeks.

Then form layers of mango and lime custard.
