Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 large ripe mangoes, peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Mango Purée: Blend the chopped mangoes in a blender or food processor until smooth, then set aside.
  2. Bloom Gelatin: Sprinkle the gelatin evenly over the cold water in a small bowl and let it sit for 5 minutes to soften and bloom.
  3. Warm Milk Mixture: In a saucepan over low heat, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, and sugar. Warm gently, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves completely. Do not allow the mixture to boil.
  4. Dissolve Gelatin: Stir the bloomed gelatin into the warm milk mixture until fully dissolved, ensuring no lumps remain.
  5. Combine and Flavor: Remove the saucepan from heat, then stir in the mango purée and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.
  6. Pour and Cool: Pour the pudding mixture into serving glasses or bowls and allow it to cool slightly at room temperature.
  7. Chill Until Set: Refrigerate the pudding for at least 4 hours or overnight until it is fully set and firm enough to serve.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish with fresh mango cubes and mint leaves for a vibrant and fresh presentation.

Notes

  • Taste the mangoes before blending to adjust the sugar level according to their natural sweetness.
  • For a smoother texture, strain the mango purée through a fine sieve before mixing.
  • To make this pudding vegetarian, substitute unflavored gelatin with agar-agar powder according to package instructions.
  • Enhance flavor and presentation by topping with additional fresh fruit or a light drizzle of honey.
