Korean yogurt dessert with mango and sesame Recipe
A light dessert made with thick yogurt, sweet mango and crunchy sesame is a simple way to end a meal with a “Korean-tropical” twist. In Korea, desserts that combine traditional ingredients like sesame with modern, lighter forms are becoming more and more popular. This dessert is a bit like a parfait, but with a distinct sesame accent.

Ingredients
- plain thick yogurt Greek- or Balkan-style - 500 g
- mango ripe but firm - 2 pieces
- honey or more to taste - 3 tablespoons
- sesame seeds white or a mix of white and black - 3 tablespoons
- flaked almonds optional, for extra crunch - 2 tablespoons
- vanilla extract or paste, optional - 0.5 teaspoons
- salt for the yogurt, enhances the flavor - 1 pinch
Main Ingredient:
yogurt
Preparation
- Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for 2–3 minutes, stirring often, until they start to smell nutty and turn lightly golden. Transfer to a small plate so they don’t burn.
- If using flaked almonds, toast them in the same pan for 1–2 minutes, until lightly browned.
- Peel the mango, cut the flesh away from the pit and dice it into small cubes. If you like, set aside a few nice pieces for decoration.
- In a bowl, mix the yogurt with honey, a pinch of salt and vanilla until smooth and lightly sweet. Taste and add more honey if needed.
- Prepare 4 glasses or dessert cups. Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of yogurt into the bottom of each, then add a layer of diced mango and sprinkle with a teaspoon of toasted sesame.
- Repeat the layers until you use up all the ingredients, finishing with yogurt and a few pieces of mango on top.
- Sprinkle the dessert with the remaining sesame seeds and flaked almonds. Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for 20–30 minutes.

Deser przechowuj przykryty w lodówce. Z czasem mango puści sok, a sezam straci chrupkość, więc najlepiej zjeść go w ciągu 24 godzin.
