Maui Mango Ginger Granita

As I promised earlier, here is my Hawaiian inspired version of granita.

Maui Mango Ginger Granita
2 ripe mangoes
juice of 1 lemon
2 tbsp. finely grated ginger
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup sugar

Blend the ingredients until smooth.  Freeze in a 9 x 13″ pan for at least 3 hours.  Scrape and fluff with a fork every hour until completely frozen.

Here’s how to cut a mango, cut both sides off the mango as close to the pit as possible.  Cut a grid of 1″squares.  Turn the side inside out to remove the flesh.  Peel the center piece with the pit and cut off any additional flesh.  Oh, and ginger root should be pealed with the back of a spoon (it just scrapes off) and then grated.
