Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe mangoes
- 400 ml coconut cream
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon agar-agar powder
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
Chill the coconut cream in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. This will help separate the cream from the liquid.
Peel and pit the mangoes, then chop the flesh into small pieces.
Blend the mango pieces in a blender or food processor until smooth, creating a mango puree. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the agar-agar powder and water. Stir well and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring continuously. Once it boils, lower the heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the agar-agar dissolves completely. Set aside to cool slightly.
Open the chilled coconut cream can and scoop out the thick cream into a large mixing bowl, leaving the liquid behind. Using a hand mixer or whisk, whip the coconut cream until smooth and fluffy.
Gently fold in the mango puree, maple syrup, and vanilla extract into the whipped coconut cream until combined.
Add the slightly cooled agar-agar solution to the mango and coconut mixture. Gently fold until evenly incorporated.
Transfer the mixture into serving cups or bowls.
Refrigerate the mango mousse for at least 2 hours or until set.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
