Ingredients
Scale
150g/5½oz ripe mango flesh
preferably the Alphonso variety
plus extra slices to serve
100g/3½oz natural yoghurt
200ml/7fl oz milk or water
2–3 tbsp agave nectar
to taste
¼ tsp ground cardamom (optional)
4 tbsp chia seeds
a few mint leaves
to garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the ripe mango flesh, natural yoghurt, milk or water, agave nectar, and ground cardamom (if using). Blend until smooth.
- In a bowl, mix the chia seeds with the blended mango mixture. Stir well to combine.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until the chia seeds have absorbed the liquid and the mixture has thickened.
- Once thickened, stir the pudding again and serve it in individual bowls or glasses, garnished with extra mango slices and mint leaves if desired.
Notes
Make sure to refrigerate the pudding long enough for the chia seeds to swell up, creating a pudding-like texture. This can be prepared the night before for a quick breakfast or snack.
