  • 400 g yogurt
  • 2 tsp milk powder
  • Zest of 1 lime

  • 1/2 tsp sugar

Instructions
 

Eggless Lime Cheesecake

  • Preheat oven to 180C. Line a 6" dessert ring with a double layer of foil to come up around the edges so the mixture doesn't leak. You can also use a loose bottomed tin but make sure you wrap it with foil too.
  • In a large bowl whisk together all ingredients for cheesecake until smooth.
  • Turn into prepared tin and bake for 15 minutes. Leave to cool in tin, then cover and place to chill in fridge overnight.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the sauce for topping.

Mango Lime Sauce

  • Place the mango juice a in a heavy bottom pan with lime zest and sugar, and cook over medium high heat until halved in quantity. {If you like a slight hint of chili, you can add half a slit deseeded green chili for 2-3 minutes, and then discard it}
  • Once the juice has reduced, add the lime juice and corn flour stirring until it thickens to desired consistency. The sauce will thicken a bit more on cooling.
  • Cool sauce, and then chill overnight with the cheesecake. {The sauce can be made in advance}
  • Top with cutouts from mango slices, fresh basil leaves, flowers if in bloom. Chill until ready to serve!
