Mango Cream Pear Dessert

Peel the mango and puree the pulp in a processor or blender

Combine the lemon juice and vanilla extract, blending until a smooth purée forms

Spread the purée onto a 23 cm diameter plate

Cut the pears in half and then make vertical cuts, without separating the slices from the stem

Place the pears on top of the purée, arranging each pear to resemble an umbrella

Cover with plastic wrap and microwave at high power for 8 minutes

Let it rest in the oven without opening, for 5 minutes

Let it cool, decorate with Hortelê leaves, and serve
