Mango Coconut Agar Agar Terrine
Ingredients
- 600 gram ripe mangoes about 2 large mangoes
- 400 gram full-fat coconut milk 1 can
- 200 ml water
- 10 gram Agar Agar
- 100 gram sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- fresh mint leaves, coconut flakes or edible flowers for garnish (optional)
Directions
Prepare the mango layer:
- Peel and remove the seed from the mangoes. Blend the mango flesh in a blender or food processor until smooth. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 200ml (g) of water, 50g sugar, and 5g agar agar powder. Whisk the mixture well to dissolve the agar agar powder. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Once it reaches a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes, continuing to stir.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, gradually add the blended mango to the agar mixture, stirring to combine well. Add a pinch of salt to balance the flavors.
- Pour the mango layer into a rectangular terrine mold or loaf pan lined with plastic wrap. Allow the mango layer to cool and begin to set at room temperature
Prepare the coconut layer:
- In another saucepan, combine the 400ml (g) of coconut milk, 50g sugar, and 5g agar agar powder. Whisk the mixture well to dissolve the agar agar powder. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Once it reaches a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes, continuing to stir.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool slightly. Once the mango layer in the terrine mold has started to set, gently pour the coconut layer over it.
- Allow the terrine to cool completely at room temperature.
Chill and serve:
- Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to ensure both layers are fully set.
- To serve, carefully unmold the terrine onto a serving platter. Slice into portions using a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry. Garnish with fresh mint leaves, coconut falkes or edible flowers
