Green Mango Fritatta

I am a breakfast person.  Just love a nice bit of fruit, along with some pancakes or crepes, or omelet, or popovers, Dutch Baby, or muffins, toast and sausage, or bacon and eggs, or pastry or..... you get the picture.  And, sometimes this morning  meal  is a good place to do some creative experimentation.


There was a lone, little green mango under the mango tree.  Maybe a bird knocked it off.  But, that sort of thing was meant for inventive use, not to be wasted.  Too small for anything major, just right for my breakfast. Green mangoes, just barely starting to color, are similar to tart green apples, perfect for Green Mango Pie, and I've used them in Dutch Babies, which this creation is an off-shoot of.  I began with sourdough starter, an egg, a bit of yogurt, salt, sugar and baking soda.  That's it.  Well, the mango, of course.
