This Hong Kong Style Mango Pudding is a smooth, creamy dessert featuring ripe mangoes blended into a luscious pudding set with gelatin and enriched with evaporated milk. Sweetened with granulated sugar, this chilled treat offers a perfect balance of fruity freshness and creamy texture, ideal for a refreshing finish to any meal.

Ingredients

Gelatin Mixture

  • 100 g cold water
  • 2 tablespoons gelatin powder

Mango Pudding Base

  • 450 g fresh, ripe mangoes, peeled and cut into pieces (about 2 large mangoes)
  • 350 g evaporated milk, plus extra for serving
  • 100 g granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. Bloom the Gelatin: In a small bowl, add the cold water. Sprinkle the gelatin powder evenly over the surface and let it sit for 5 minutes until the gelatin blooms and reaches a gel-like consistency.
  2. Prepare Mango Purée: Using a blender, blend the peeled and cut mangoes until smooth. For fibrous or stringy mangoes, strain the purée through a fine mesh sieve to ensure a silky texture.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Pour the mango purée into a small pot. Add the evaporated milk and granulated sugar, stirring well to combine all ingredients evenly.
  4. Add Gelatin and Heat: Incorporate the bloomed gelatin into the pot. Place the pot on low-medium heat on the stovetop and stir occasionally. Warm the mixture just until the gelatin fully dissolves, being careful not to let it boil as overheating can damage the gelatin’s setting properties.
  5. Cool and Pour: Remove the pot from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly. Then, pour the pudding mixture into serving cups or bowls.
  6. Chill to Set: Refrigerate the pudding cups for at least 4 hours or ideally overnight until fully set and firm.
  7. Serve: Serve the mango pudding chilled, optionally garnished with fresh mango chunks and a drizzle of extra evaporated milk for added richness.

Notes

  • Do not boil the mixture after adding gelatin as this will prevent the pudding from setting properly.
  • For a smoother texture, strain the mango purée if your mangoes are fibrous.
  • Use ripe, sweet mangoes for the best flavor.
  • This pudding can be prepared a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of sugar according to taste.
