Easy Mango Brulee Recipe from Steamy Kitchen’s healthy asian favorites Cookbook is a great summer mango dessert recipe.
I’m not sure how I came across Jaden Hair’s Steamy Kitchen website. It may have been on twitter or I may have run across her on the now defunct FoodBuzz site a few years ago. Her site and story is so inspiring. It gives the rest of us Food Bloggers something to aspire to.
When the opportunity came up to help spread the word about her new cook book I jumped on it.
This weeks Sunday Supper is a little different.
20 bloggers from the #SundaySupper crew will be hosting a giveaway of a copy of Jaden’s new cookbook Healthy Asian Favorites.
The book is full of great healthy Asian recipes with beautiful photography. A cook book has got to have beautiful photography as far as I am concerned and Jaden has some mad cooking and photography skills.
I also had the honor to make one of the recipes out of the cookbook.
I chose to make Mango Brulee because I am a Florida gal and we have plenty of mangoes available all year-long. I chose the recipe site unseen. What a surprise I had when I had a copy of the book in my hand and saw how easy this recipe is. I had an even bigger surprise when I made the recipe and tasted it. It is so good and so easy to make.
You can find the recipe below the details.
Join the Sunday Supper Team along with Jaden Hair this Sunday at 7pm Eastern Time on twitter, just follow the #SundaySupper hashtag. We are giving away 20 copies of Steamy Kitchen’s Healthy Asian Favorites Cookbook. You don’t want to miss this week’s #SundaySupper Event!
How to make Mango Brulee
- 2 mangoes
- ¼ cup turbinado sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- pinch of ground nutmeg
- Turn on the broiler. Position rack 6 inches below the heat source. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Cut through the mangoes on either side of the pit as evenly as possible. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients and sprinkle on top of each mango slice.
- Place the mango slices on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure the mango halves are level so the sugar does not spill out.
- If you need to, use crumpled tin foil to steady the mango.
- Broil for 3 minutes, or until the sugar has caramelized. Alternately you can use a creme brulee torch to caramelize the sugar.

Wow, so gorgeous! When I saw the list of recipes that we could make for today, I saw “Mango Brulee” and assumed it was to hard (for me) to make–since I don’t make desserts. What a pleasant surprise it was when I received the book and saw the recipe. “What? It’s really that easy?” I made it last night when we had guests over for my husband’s birthday party, and they were delighted with it.
You did the recipe proud!

The spiced sugar mixture on these mangoes looks incredible. I can’t wait to try this recipe!
Renee
Seriously great recipe. I want to try it with other fruits too. I’m thinking to start with peaches.
Lane @ Supper for a Steal
I can’t wait to get my hands on some mangos and try this recipe! It looks perfect.
Kimberly
I’m always looking for creative ways to get my daily dose of fruits and veggies, so I am happy to hear that this recipe tastes good. I’m looking forward to trying it. I like a lot of Asian dishes, including pad see ew (probably my favorite), Mongolian beef, spring rolls, and dumplings. (Twitter: @kmurrayphoto)

I love Asian food so much & these mango brûlée look delicious! One of my favorite Asian dishes is soba noodles that are served cold with wasabi & scallions on the side. In the summer it is so refreshing! Can’t wait for #SundaySupper @frogger097
