Every 45-1 hour take it out and with a hand beater or whisk beat until smooth, about 2 minutes. Repeat 2-3 times.

Recipe Notes

I used the hand beater method. I kept the hand beater next to the refrigerator and after every mixing rinsed the attachment immediately. Made my work easy.

Use mangoes with smooth flesh rather than the fibrous ones. If using fibrous one, puree and then strain the pulp.
