We’ve been stoned nice and proper this summer! No, no, it’s not what you think. It’s just that we’ve had a wonderful bounty of stone fruit, and just when I think it’s the end of the season, the vibrant bazaar and the vendor tempt me back with more fruit to offer! A few days ago, my favourite fruit-vendor promised me another week of peaches. Just when I heaved a sigh of relief that I still had time, and there was really no need for ‘fruit’ panic, he showed the most luscious peaches. I had walked into the trap!
Tropical Fruit Verrines
Recipe adapted minimally from Tartlette
Serves 6
2 mangoes, peeled, and pureed with lime juice
2 tbsp lime juice
1 cup drained preserved cherries, or fresh, or canned
2 kiwis, skinned and diced
3 peaches, skinned, stoned and diced
1 mango, peeled and diced
1/2 cup hung yogurt {should be very thick}
150ml low fat cream {25%}
1 vanilla bean scraped
2 tbsp powdered sugarMethod:
For the bottom layer, peel the mango and cut in rough chunks, run them through the food processor with the lime juice until you obtain a fine puree. Divide it evenly among glasses or dishes.
Mix the diced fruit and cherries to get a nice fruit salad, add a couple of tbsp of lime juice to prevent the fruits from turning brown if you want. Divide on top of the mango puree evenly among the glasses.
Mix the hung yogurt, cream, powdered sugar and scraped vanilla bean in a small bowl with a whisk until just well blended & smooth., and divide it between the glasses. Top with fresh sliced fruit. Refrigerate until ready to serve.♥ Thank you for stopping by ♥

This is a gorgeous, inspirational post. A perfect summer dessert.
Your photos are amazing! This whole summer I've been craving peaches but have only had 2 (one of which my boyfriend ate!) It's a tragedy. Loved stumbling upon your blog.
Interesting! I have been looking for this info for the last few hours.

I love all the vibrant colours of the tropical fruit in your photos. And after reading about the lovely fruit in your last few posts, I am really impatient for summer to come around in my part of the world!
ARRGHH!!! The preserved cherries take it over the top! SO wishing I had done this when I saw it making the rounds a few months back. Making a note right now to make some next spring! Your dessert looks lovely! Thanx!
looks so refreshing with those beautiful colors..
Absolutely STUNNING, Deeba!!
I love these so very much.
This is a great way to use tropical and local fruits. Delicious!!!!!!
Thanks to recipes like this, my verrines will benefit from a newer dimension of flavors and colors. You would look at my usual classic verrines and you probably would be pleased by the work of taste in there, but they lacked of the fun and varied touches of yours.
Just like me … when I have cherries, I can't have enough angles to take, they are just simply beautiful

Stunning pictures, D!! That looks so easy, and so delish! I might try it out with the last few peaches of the year!
Thanks for the fantastic idea. I mentioned you in my weekly links round-up.
