[recipes] Mango Sago Pomelo vs Mango Pudding

[Dessert] Homemade Mango Sago with Pomelo
Now is definitely a good time to make some mango dessert especially when those sweet Honey Mango from Thailand are on offer. Since the fruit stalls at my area are selling 1 for either a dollar to two depending its outer appearance and ripeness, I bought a dozen to make some cool refreshing chilling Mango Sago as well as Mango Pudding to beat the scorching heat.



MANGO SAGO POMELO
(杨枝甘露)


[Dessert] Homemade Mango Sago with Pomelo
Mango Sago is one of the popular dessert other than red bean tang yuan or yam paste which often serve at the end of the Chinese Wedding Banquet. This "expensive" dessert (around $4 - $7 per bowl) is mainly made with mangoes, pearl sago and cream/milk which can be easily obtain from local supermarkets. Besides that to enhance the taste you can even add in extra mango cubes, scoop of ice-cream and some pomelo sacs (釉子肉) if they are available.

MANGO PUDDING
(芒果布丁)


[Dessert] Homemade Mango Pudding
Mango Pudding (芒果布丁) is another popular dessert that served cold with silky and creamy custard like texture. Although they are many different recipes in making this all-time favourite dessert but more or less the main ingredients are often mangoes, cream/milk and gelatine powder (sometime egg is added as one of the ingredients too).

For this recipe the colour of the mango pudding tends to be more milky white rather than yellow due to the proportion of mango puree verse milk and cream. So if you prefer a stronger mango taste pudding, increase the amount of mango to 600g; then decrease the milk to 300ml.


(Yield: 8 | Preparation: 10 minutes | Chilling: 2 hours)

Ingredients:
  • 400g Mango Purée (3 honey mango)
  • 500ml Fresh Milk
  • 200ml Whipping Cream
  • 65g Caster Sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons Gelatin Powder
  • Juice of 1/2 Lemon

Method:
1. Combine milk, whipping cream and sugar in a saucepan then simmer (do not let it boil) mixture till sugar dissolved.

2. Ladle some warm milk to dissolve the gelatin powder before pouring it back to the milk mixture. Set aside to cool slightly.

3. Add lemon juice to mango cubes then purée it with a hand blender till smooth.

4. Pour mango purée into milk. Stir and mix then divide mixture into 8 containers (about 150ml each), top with some diced mango and chill for at least 2 hours.

5. To serve: enjoy it on it's own or drizzle some extra evaporated or condensed milk on it.
