Last week we purchased a first mango box in Indian store for this summer. We waited 4 more days for it to ripen completely. My Kids and H like to have the mangoes as it is. When kids return from school in afternoons I feel some chilled desserts will make them cool. Also, I had a half packet gelatin, sat in my pantry for a while then what else quickly prepared this delicious eggless mango mousse in just 10 minutes of time. I already have a mousse version compared to it this version is very light and airy with reduced gelatin.
Serves :- 3-4 Numbers
Ingredients for Eggless Mango Mousse
Fresh Mangoes – 3-4 Small Mangoes or Pulp 1 and 1/2 Cups approx
Heavy Cream or Whipping Cream – 1 Cup (240 ml) (you can add another 1/4cup and after stiff peaks reserve that for topping on mousse)
Sugar – 1/2 Cup (115 grams) (you can increase if you wish)
Mango Essence – Few Drops or Cardamom Powder – 1 tsp
* Gelatin /Pectin/ Agar Agar Powder – 1 and 1/2 tsp

Mango Mousse Preparation
- Wash and peel the mangoes, remove the flush part and grind to with sugar to get fine puree.

Yes Sunny, if using liquid pectin then 3/4th tbsp works for 1/5 cups puree…
I tried the recipe with pectin, followed the measurements exactly but my mousse did not set. I left it in the fridge for 4 hours and yet it was runny. Tasted good but runny
sorry to hear that, did you whip the cream to stiff peaks? also increase the quantity of pectin and mix with the same stuff and chill for few more hours.
