5 ripe mangoes (I like Haiti mangoes)
1 cup sugar
5 cups chicken stock
1/4 t. cinnamon
1/4 t. ground ginger
2 whole cloves
2 T. rum
1/2 c. whipping cream whipped (optional)
nutmeg for garnish
Peel, seed and chop mangoes. Put the fruit in a heavy saucepan along with the sugar, chicken stock, cinnamon, ginger and cloves. Cook over medium heat, skimming any foam from the surface, until the liquid is reduced by about one quarter.
Press the mixture through a seive. (Do not omit this step. I thought I could, and we were picking mango hair like threads from our mouths....I seived halfway through dinner, and it was fine!) Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour.
