The method

Step by step

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the gelatin water and let it bloom for 5 minutes until softened.

    About 5 min

    Cook’s note: Ensure the water is at room temperature to prevent the gelatin from clumping.

  2. 2

    Place the bloomed gelatin mixture into a double boiler or a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved and clear.

    About 3 min

    Cook’s note: Do not let the water boil vigorously, as this can denature the gelatin.

  3. 3

    In a blender, combine the pudding base mango, evaporated milk, and granulated sugar. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.

    About 2 min

    Cook’s note: For an extra smooth texture, you can pass the mango puree through a fine-mesh sieve.

  4. 4

    Add the dissolved gelatin to the mango mixture in the blender and blend again briefly to combine.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: Ensure the gelatin mixture is still warm but not hot when adding to prevent it from setting too quickly.

  5. 5

    Pour the mango pudding mixture into individual serving molds or a large serving bowl.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: Lightly oiling the molds beforehand can help with easy removal once set.

  6. 6

    Refrigerate the pudding for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.

    About 4 hr

    Cook’s note: For best results, chill overnight.

  7. 7

    Before serving, garnish with the diced garnish mango.

    Cook’s note: A sprig of mint can also add a nice touch of color.
