Expert Tips
- Use fresh ripe mangoes when in season for the best flavour and texture. You can also use frozen (defrosted) mango, or canned if fresh mangoes are not available.
- Use 2 fresh mangoes for 1 cup of puree. Alternatively, use just over 1 cup of mango chunks for 1 cup of puree.
- For a dairy free option, use coconut milk.
- Use a food processor or blender to puree the mangoes until smooth, or use a Thermomix for a quick and easy process.
- Chill the Mango Pudding for at least 2 hours or overnight to ensure it sets properly.
- Serve the pudding with fresh mango cubes, shredded coconut, or other toppings of your choice.
FAQs
You can use agar agar powder instead of gelatine. The main difference between agar and gelatin is from where they are derived. Gelatine is animal based, whereas agar agar powder is a vegetarian and vegan-friendly alternative to traditional gelatine. Just check amounts, as normally you would use about half the amount of agar as a recipe with gelatine uses.
Mango Pudding can last in the fridge for up to 3 days, covered with plastic wrap or a lid.
This recipe is best served fresh and is not recommended for freezing.
