Hong Kong's beloved Mango Pudding
Hong Kong mango pudding was introduced during the colonial era and very quickly became a favourite among locals. It’s also a perfect cooling dessert for summer and for making the most of the mangoes of the season.
Ingredients:
2 ripe mangoes
250 ml water
250 ml evaporated milk
250 ml coconut milk
120 grams sugar
1 tablespoon gelatin powder
Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Method:
Prep the Mangoes: Peel and chop the ripe mangoes. You want them nice and juicy for that rich mango flavour.
Blend It: In a blender, blend the mango chunks with water until smooth to make your mango puree. For texture, keep some mango chunks in there.
Heat and Mix: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the mango puree, evaporated milk, coconut milk, and sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves and everything is well combined.
Add Gelatin: Sprinkle gelatin powder over the mixture while stirring continuously until it dissolves completely.
Chill: Pour the mixture into individual serving bowls or a mould. Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.
Serve: To serve, gently loosen the edges of the pudding and unmould it onto a plate if using a mould. Garnish with fresh chunks of mango.
We used in-season Indian mangoes from alphonsomango.co.uk below as they are fibreless and very sweet.
