Reduce the flame, stirring constantly and simmer for 3 minutes. Pour mixture into a blender. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes and then blend on high for 2 minutes (scraping down the sides if necessary). Pour equal amounts into oiled 1/2 cup ramekins for individual servings . Place ramekins in the refrigerator for 1 hour to set up.;
Puree all ingredients in a blender, except the kiwi for garnish. Strain through a fine sieve to remove seeds, if desired.;
Heat 2 cups of oil in a saute pan (do not allow the oil to smoke). Add small handfuls of shredded phyllo dough. Fry on both sides until the phyllo is golden in color. Remove from pan onto paper towels. Brush with maple syrup. Sprinkle with toasted almonds if desired.
For presentation: Loosen the ramekin containing the mango mousse with a knife and turn it out on the plate. Top with a dollop of tofu whipped cream and drizzle kiwi kool-ee on the plate. Serve with a cookie of fried phyllo dough. Place diced mango and kiwi on the plate to accent the sauces.
