  Make mango custard filling

  Crack 2 eggs, carefully separate the 2 yolks into a pot, then add 20g of sugar and stir well to combine the yolks completely with the sugar.

  Next, add 12g of cornstarch and 100ml of warm banana milk, and continue stirring. At this point, you should pour the pureed mango mixture into the egg and milk pot and mix well.

  Place the pot on the stove, adjust to medium heat, and cook the mixture for about 10 minutes until it thickens slightly, then scoop the filling into an ice cube tray and place it in the refrigerator for 60 minutes.
