Mango Pudding

Ahh, the year is almost over and Holiday season is in full swing. This means family gatherings, days off and most of all... FOOD!

My sister-in-law, Vania, has the best homemade mango pudding. In fact, until she told me that she had made it herself, I was convinced that mango pudding was one of those desserts that you could only buy in a store or have magically brought to you at the end of a Chinese meal.

I have yet to try this out myself, but here is the recipe:

Mango Pudding

500 mL whipping cream
4 pkg. gelatin
750 mL mango puree (Alphonso cans - can be found at Superstore, T&T or Indian food stores)
1.5 cup sugar
4.5 cup water


1) Boil 3 cups water and sugar and gelatin. Stir quick until dissolved

2) Add canned mango, and 1.5 cup cold water

3) Pour whipping cream until even

Update March 30, 2011: Jen went to make this and noted that Superstore will no longer be stocking the Alphonso mango pulp that you need to make this recipe.
