    I'm afraid that I can't quite decide if I love this recipe or if my yummy mango should have been eaten by itself!

    ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! Will DEFINITELY be making this again, who'd have thought the mango, brocolli and ginger would go together as well as it did. This has become one of my favourite soups! :D

    This was cooked with purple sprouting broccoli and gave the soup a more intense green colour. It was an interesting and unexpected blend of flavours which went down very well.

    OMG! LOVELY!!!! Try this - it is great. I like to serve it with slices of bread that have been lightly soaked in oil, honey, lemon juice, ginger and red peppers and then grilled in the oven for about 5 minutes.
