You may be pleased to hear that my obsession with mangoes has come to an end now that I've left Asia........to be replaced with a new one! The mango has been usurped by the indigenous to Australia, strangely looking and sounding Custard Apple (see pic opposite). Now Aussies don't try and be obtuse or clever when naming things and I've found that they tend to describe things are they are/come. Therefore, when you slice a custard apple in two you see creamy white flesh inside which you scoop out like firm custard and it's very sweet and absolutely delicious. I think Amanda is regretting introducing it to me!
