About Mango Pudding
Mango Pudding is a smooth melt in the mouth dessert that can made quickly in a jiffy using easily available ingredients in your pantry. Agar agar is easily available online now. Agar Agar is a jelly like substance which is a setting agent for jellies and puddings. It is a perfect vegetarian, vegan substitute for gelatin. Mango Pudding is a silky smooth dessert loved by all. It just uses very few ingredients and the end result is pure delight.
Had been using agar agar strands since years and it has been a successful journey. With this magical ingredient puddings and jellies can be made in no time and can be enjoyed by vegetarains too.
Mango Pudding Vegan
To make this Mango Pudding Recipe Vegan first increase water quantity to 3/4 cup instead of 1/2 cup. Then replace 1/2 cup milk with 1/2 cup coconut milk. But do not boil coconut milk add it after the mango puree, switch off and mix.
Agar Agar – China Grass
Agar Agar comes in 2 forms and I have used both. Agar agar strands are easily available in supermarkets but agar agar powder I have found found only online as its not readily available in my place. Agar Agar is also known as China Grass.
- Agar Agar Strands – Strands are good but they need to be cut down onto small bits or grinded to a coarse mixture for it to dissolve easily, also comes in gram measures so a bit difficult to measure in tbsp.
- Agar Agar Powder – Powder easily dissolves and easy to measure too.
This is the Agar Agar Powder I used – not sponsored just sharing from where I bought. Agar Agar Strands also available in Amazon.

Mango Pudding Ingredients
- Mangoes – Fresh juicy mango varieties are recommended for this pudding. I used a combination of Alphonso and Banganapalli varieties for perfect taste and color.
- Milk – Use fresh boiled milk for this recipe preferably full fat milk for a richer pudding.
- Agar Agar – You can either use agar agar strands or agar agar powder but measure accordingly.
- Sweetner – I used regular white sugar and I recommend it to enjoy the pudding to the fullest.

Notes
- I used Alphonso mangoes and Banganapalli combo, you can use any fiber less mango variety.
- I used silicone moulds for easy demoulding but you can set puddings in any container steel or glass.
- Adjust sugar quantity according to the sweetness of mangoes.
- Once china grass gets dissolved do not delay add sugar and mango pulp as soon as possible else it will start to thicken.
- Agar agar puddings sets beautifully in room temperature itself but I prefer to chill it for a while to serve Chilled Mango Pudding.
- As I chilled just for 30 mins and it got set by that time, also served it soon after clicking I didn’t cover the pudding. But if you are planning to store the pudding in fridge for a day or more cling wrap or cover with foil and store.
