Description
Mango Pudding is a silky-smooth, tropical dessert made with ripe mangoes, cream, and a touch of gelatin for a light yet creamy texture. It’s a popular Asian dessert, especially enjoyed chilled on hot days.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe mangoes (about 2 cups mango puree)
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tbsp sugar (adjust to taste)
- 2 tsp unflavored gelatin powder
- 3 tbsp warm water (to bloom gelatin)
- Fresh mango cubes and mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Peel and chop the mangoes. Blend into a smooth puree (you should get about 2 cups).
- In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over warm water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
- In a saucepan over low heat, combine milk, cream, sugar, and condensed milk. Stir until warm and sugar is dissolved (do not boil).
- Remove from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.
- Add the mango puree and mix until smooth and fully combined.
- Pour the mixture into serving cups or ramekins. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until set.
- Garnish with fresh mango cubes or mint leaves before serving, if desired.
Notes
- Use Alphonso or Ataulfo mangoes for best flavor and sweetness.
- You can replace gelatin with agar-agar for a vegetarian version (adjust quantity accordingly).
- For a richer pudding, use coconut milk in place of regular milk.
- This dessert can be made a day ahead and kept chilled until serving.
