Total Time: 3 hours 10 mins

Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 400 gram mango flesh
• 200 ml plain yoghurt
• 25 gram palm sugar (Indonesian: gula Jawa)
• 100 gram sugar, or to taste
• juice of 1/2 to 1 lime, or to taste
• 300 ml water
• 5 gram agar powder, I use plain Kristal Agar from Swallow Globe brand (agar-agar and jelly powder)
• Toppings suggestion
• chopped fresh strawberries
• chopped fresh mangoes
• pomelo
• mint leaves

Instructions

1. In a blender, process together mango, yoghurt, palm sugar, and sugar until smooth. Add more sugar as needed. Brighten the mango mixture with lime juice as needed.
2. With a strainer, strain the mango mixture to remove the stringy bits of the mango. This is to ensure a silky smooth pudding.
3. Heat water and agar powder together in a pot. Stir continuously until all the powder has dissolved. Reduce the heat to a bare simmer once it reaches rolling boil. Add the strained mango mixture to the pot and stir until well mixed. Turn off the heat.
4. Pour into serving glasses/bowls/molds of your choice. Let set at room temperature, then cover with a saran plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 2 hours.
5. Serve plain, or with toppings of your choice.
