Recipe

To prepare the crust: In a large bowl, combine the macadamia nuts, coconut, ginger, and sugar, and mix well. Add the melted butter, and mix well. Press the mixture into a well-greased 10-inch flan pan with a removable bottom. Refrigerate.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.


To prepare the filling: Place the mangoes in a bowl, add the sugar, vanilla, cornstarch, five-spice, cinnamon, ginger, lime zest, and dark rum, and mix well. Pour the filling into the crust. Bake until the filling bubbles and the sugar is dissolved, about 40 minutes. Let cool for about 20 minutes.
