Ingredients

  • 3 slices white bread (trim out the crust and cut each slice into quarters)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

For the mango cashew cream sauce

  • ½ cup raw cashews (soaked for 4 hours or more in 1 cup of water)
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 cup mango puree
  • ½ teaspoon ground cardamom use green cardamom pods
  • Chopped cashews for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Heat the coconut oil in a skillet and then fry the slices of bread on each side until golden. Set aside.
  • Make the sauce by blending the raw cashews with the water into a very smooth paste.
  • Add the sugar and bring the mixture to a boil in a heavy saucepan. Let it cook, stirring frequently, for about five minutes or until the mixture thickens.
  • Turn off the heat and add the mango puree and cardamom. Stir to mix thoroughly.
  • Arrange the slices of fried bread on a plate and pour the sauce over. The sauce should be hot so it soaks nicely into the bread,
  • Sprinkle with some cashews (fry them in a little oil for extra flavor)
  • Let the bread stand for a few minutes before serving, so it absorbs the sauce.
