Mango Pudding

I love December!
I enjoy the Christmas spirit, the rain and the lovely color of nature.

As the rainy weather coming to accompany Christmas season, and the sun still shines timidly, this time we decided to put more color in our yard. Other than overhauling the lawns with fresh grass, we planted some flowers and trees; from frangipani, morning glory to vines. Day by day, I fall in love more and more to our home.

Mango Pudding

This month, we don't only enjoy the blooming flowers but also lots of exotic tropical fruits are easy to find in markets. From the famous hairy fruit, Rambutan to the sweet jackfruit. From the heavy and sweet mangosteen to the delicious mango. Fresh tropical fruits become our delicious ready to eat snack for now.

Having lots of mango in the kitchen, I decided to prepare this mango pudding. This was my first time using gelatin for the pudding instead of agar-agar powder. I got different texture compare with pudding made from agar-agar powder. At the end, I serve it with chopped mangos and sprinkled with crumbs. It turned so delicious, more than what I expected.

I got the idea to put crumbs from the other recipe in Delicious Magazine (Australia). Finally, we always add more crumbs while enjoying the pudding. What a clever combination.

For sure, I'll make it again...
