Hello Tuesday! It’s sweltering out there and we all need something to cool down. I have something sweet and chilly to share, my quick and simple Mango Pudding. It’ll only take a few minutes to make and it doesn’t involve a ton of ingredients.

Mango is my most favorite fruit in the whole wide world and there’s a lot of ways you can make something out of a mango. One of them is Mango Pudding which is extremely popular in Asia and is guaranteed to be a crowd favorite everywhere. It’s a great dessert for the summer and even throughout the whole four seasons. It retains the bold, sweet, and delicious taste of a mango but with a gelatinous twist.

 

Here’s my quick and easy recipe:

 

Ingredients:

 

easy mango pudding

 

1 cup Mango Puree (you can buy them in Asian food markets or even on Amazon.com)

 

1/8 cup Sugar (could be more if your Mango Puree is not sweetened)

 

1/2 cup Cream (heavy whipping cream)

2 cups Milk (either fat-free or whole milk)

1/2 cup Agar-Agar strips (If thick, cut into 1/2 inch, also available in the grocery stores, or even on Amazon.com. You can even substitute it for Agar powder, available here.)

 

1/2 cup Water

 

 

Procedure:

 

 

  1. Boil the milk in a saucepan, together with Sugar and Cream. Let it cool down after boiling (3-4 minutes).

  1. In a separate pan, melt the Agar-Agar strips with 1/2 cup Water until they dissolve completely. Then strain it to remove the undissolved particles, if any.

  1. Once blended, the entire mixture will look somewhat thick but not yet gelatinous. Pour the mixture into different cups and place it in the refrigerator for a few hours.

 

  1. Serve Chilled and Enjoy.

 

Notes: Once inside the refrigerator, the mixture will slowly become gelatinous and transforms into a pudding. You can add some mango strips and mint leaves on top, or whichever topping you may wanna include. If you purchased an already-sweetened Mango Puree, you may only wanna add a bit of sugar, but if it’s unsweetened, then you can adjust the sugar to taste. You can even use a fresh Mango fruit instead of a Puree. It’s all up to you.

 

This easy peasy Mango pudding recipe takes only a few minutes to prepare and it makes about 3-4 cups of gelatinous mango deliciousness for everybody.

 

Go make one now, Enjoy your Summer!
