Mango Tatin

I was born in the land of Tarte Tatin, Sologne (in France), and thought of this recipe for my friend Elsa who just moved in India and didn't know what to do with mangoes. So here it is, caramelized Mangoes in an upside down pie ! If you want the whole story of the Tarte tatin, check my blog : http://frenchandparfait.blogspot.com/2012/09/mango-sisters-tatin.html
