WARM MANGO TART TATIN ON COCONUT MERINGUE WITH PAPAYA SORBET, TANGERINE HONEY SAUCE, AND OVEN DRIED SPICED PINEAPPLE CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 220 degrees F.
• To make the coconut meringue, whip the egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks. Add the sugar slowly and continue to whip until sugar is dissolved and meringue reaches the stiff peak stage. Fold in the toasted shredded coconut and place meringue into a pastry bag with a plain round tip. Pipe the meringue onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper into a circular motion to create a disk the diameter of 4-ounce ramekins. Bake until light golden brown, about 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the mango Tart Tatin: In a medium skillet, over medium high heat, combine the water, sugar, honey, and lemon juice. Scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean and add them to the skillet. Cook until the mixture just starts to caramelize, and add the mangos. Stir until the mangos are coated. Continue to cook for 2 minutes, and then remove from heat. With a slotted spoon remove mangos from cooking liquid. Place mangos into a container and let cool to room temperature. Reserve the cooking liquid for the sauce.
• When the mangos have cooled, pack them into a buttered, 4-ounce ceramic ramekin and bake approximately 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and invert onto a coconut meringue disk.
• To make the tangerine honey sauce, add the mint leaves to the warm cooking liquid from the mangos. Stir to incorporate, set aside, and keep at room temperature.
• To make the papaya sorbet, dissolve the sugar and water in a large container. Add the papaya puree and lemon juice and freeze in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's directions.
• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
• Oven-dried spiced pineapples: In a medium sized saucepan, combine the water, sugar, vanilla paste, cardamom seeds, cloves, and cinnamon sticks. Bring just to a boil. Remove from heat and add the pineapple slices. Soak the slices in the hot syrup for 2 to 3 minutes. With a slotted spoon remove the slices and drain well. Place pineapple slices onto a silicone baking mat or a parchment lined sheet tray in a single layer. Do not let the slices touch each other. Bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours and remove from oven and let cool to room temperature. Store in airtight container.
• Place the tart tatin in the center of a plate. Place a small scoop of the sorbet on the side or on top of the tart, surround the tart with the honey sauce, and garnish with the dried pineapple chips.

MANGO TART WITH TEQUILA-LIME GLAZE

Steps:

• For the lime shortbread crust: Position an oven rack in the top third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Add the flour, granulated sugar and salt to a food processor and pulse 2 to 3 times to combine. Add the cold butter cubes and pulse until the butter breaks down into small, uniform-size pieces, about the size of small pebbles. Add the lime zest and egg yolks and process a few more seconds or until the mixture looks like wet sand; the dough will not come together into a ball.
• Spray a 9-inch nonstick tart pan lightly with cooking spray, making sure to spray the sides of the pan as well as the bottom. Pour the dough into the tart pan and spread evenly. Using your hands, press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. To prevent any dough from falling out of the pan, place your left thumb over the top of the pan along the crust and press the dough up the sides with your right pointer finger. This way, you will tightly pack the dough along the sides with your pointer finger and stop it at the top of the pan with your left thumb. Continue to press the dough into the pan and along the sides until it is tightly packed and evenly distributed. Poke the bottom of the crust with a fork all over and then place the tart pan on a baking sheet.
• Bake until the sides of the crust are a deep golden brown and the crust bottom is light golden brown on top, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely.
• For the mango filling: Add the mango and lime juice to a blender and puree on high speed for 1 minute until completely smooth. Hold in the blender.
• In a small bowl, mix together the gelatin and 1/2 cup of the coconut milk. Let stand 5 minutes. As the gelatin rehydrates, the coconut milk will begin to look curdled; don't worry--it isn't.
• Set a medium saucepan over medium heat and add the granulated sugar, salt and remaining coconut milk (about 1 1/4 cups). Stir the mixture together and bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer until the sugar melts completely; the coconut milk will become opaque. Remove from the heat and immediately whisk in the gelatin mixture. until completely melted. Strain the mango mixture into the coconut milk mixture and whisk again to combine. Let the mixture cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes.
• Using a hand mixer, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the mango filling and then pour the entire filling into the cooled tart crust; the filling will come to the very top of the crust. Refrigerate for 2 hours to set the filling completely. You can make the tart up to this point 1 day in advance.
• For the tequila-lime glaze: Line a baking sheet with a cooling rack. Cut the 2 larger sides of the mango off of the pit, followed by the 2 smaller sides. Peel the 4 pieces of mango, then cut them into 1/4-inch half-moon slices.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioner' sugar, tequila and lime juice. Dip each slice of mango into the glaze and coat completely. Let drip dry over the bowl for a few seconds, then lay the mango pieces on the cooling rack for at least 15 minutes for the glaze to set.
• When ready to serve, remove the tart from the tart pan and place on a cake stand. Lay the mango slices in a circle around the tart, setting aside the smallest slice for later; the mango slices will meet in the center of the tart and then fan out overlapping each other around the tart. Roll the reserved mango slice into a rosette and place in the center of the tart. Garnish with the lime zest and serve immediately.
