Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 160°C and line the base of a 10cm springform tin with parchment, wrapping the outside in foil for a water bath.
2
Melt the cream cheese and mango puree together in a bowl set over barely simmering water, whisking until completely smooth, then whisk in the egg yolks, sugar, whole milk, melted butter and lemon juice.
3
Sift the cake flour and cornstarch directly into the warm cream cheese mixture and whisk until no lumps remain.
4
Whisk the egg white in a clean bowl to soft peaks, then fold gently into the batter in two additions, keeping as much air in as possible.
5
Pour the batter into the prepared tin, tap gently to level, and place the tin into a roasting pan filled with hot water reaching halfway up the sides.
6
Bake for 32-35 minutes until the top is pale golden and the centre has a gentle wobble, then turn off the oven and leave the door ajar for 10 minutes.
7
Lift the cheesecake out of the water bath, cool to room temperature on a wire rack, then chill in the tin for at least 2 hours.
8
Unmould carefully, top with the fresh sliced mango just before slicing into 2 pieces and serving.
