Aberdeen Street Social Recipe

We use only the ripest Philippine mangoes for their superior sweetness and creamy texture, creating a pudding that truly celebrates this tropical fruit.

Ingredients

For the Mango Pudding:

  • 3 large ripe mangoes, peeled and chopped
  • 1 packet (7g) unflavored gelatin
  • 3 tbsp warm water
  • 100ml whole milk
  • 60g caster sugar
  • 200ml heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice

For Garnish:

  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 100ml coconut cream
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar
  • Fresh mint leaves
  • Toasted coconut flakes (optional)

Cooking Instructions

  1. Prepare Gelatin: Sprinkle gelatin over warm water in a small bowl. Let bloom for 5 minutes until spongy.
  2. Make Mango Puree: Blend chopped mangoes until completely smooth. Strain through fine mesh to remove any fibers. You should have about 400ml of puree.
  3. Heat Milk: Warm milk and sugar in a saucepan until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and whisk in bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved.
  4. Combine: Mix mango puree with the milk mixture. Add lime juice and stir well. Let cool to room temperature.
  5. Add Cream: Lightly whip heavy cream to soft peaks. Gently fold into mango mixture until well combined.
  6. Set: Pour into serving glasses or molds. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours until completely set.
  7. Serve: Top with diced fresh mango, whipped coconut cream, mint leaves, and toasted coconut flakes if desired.

Chef's Tips from Aberdeen Street Social

Mango Selection

Choose mangoes that are fragrant and yield slightly to pressure. Overripe mangoes can make the pudding too sweet.

Smooth Texture

Strain the mango puree to remove any fibers for the silkiest possible texture in the final pudding.

Setting Time

Don't rush the chilling process. Proper setting time ensures the perfect creamy yet firm texture.
