Pour the puree in the grinder, add sugar and condensed milk, blend well. Condensed milk is already sweet, so if you do not want your ice cream to be very sweet, you can skip sugar as well. Then pull out chilled bowls, add some ice cubes, and pour fresh cream on top. Whisk this cream for a few minutes and mix it with the mango batter. Whisk again to combine well. Pour the batter in an air-tight container and freeze for 5 hours. Serve chilled in ice cream glasses
