Strawberry pudding was the dessert of choice for Valentine’s day this year. I love the pink tone and the sweet-tart flavor of strawberries and wanted to put them to good use before they disappeared from the local market. Minimal ingredients, ease of preparation and eggless is what got me going with this strawberry pudding recipe. Perfect for any special occasion, this smooth, silky and decadent pudding is comfort food at its best.

I do not like to use store bought instant pudding mixes since I can make a pudding from scratch using fresh ingredients. Yes, strawberry pudding from scratch that’s homemade is way better than the store bought mixes. I have used low fat milk and agar agar aka china grass instead of gelatin. The low fat milk can be substituted with whole fat milk for a richer pudding. This fruity dessert is light without being overly sweet with an incredible silky texture similar to the strawberry phirni I had posted earlier.

Method for making Strawberry pudding recipe

  1. In a bowl, add the milk and bring to a boil. Reduce flame and add the sugar and continue to simmer till it dissolves completely.

  2. While the milk-sugar mixture is simmering, prepare the china grass. Heat the water in which the china grass was soaked. Cook on medium flame and keep stirring till the china grass is completely dissolved and till appear lightly thick. Turn off flame.

  3. Gradually add the china grass mixture to the milk mixture and simmer for a minute by stirring constantly on medium flame.

  4. Add the fresh strawberry puree and strawberry essence and mix well for a mt. Turn off flame.

  5. Remove the strawberry mixture to a pudding bowl and allow to come to room temperature and set.

  6. On cooling down, the strawberry pudding will begin to set and firm on touch.

  7. Cover the pudding bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the bowl for a couple of hours or overnight.

  8. At the time of serving, place the pudding bowl in warm water for a few seconds and overturn the bowl onto a serving plate so that the pudding slides down smoothly onto the serving plate.

  9. Garnish with chopped strawberries or drizzle some chocolate or strawberry syrup and serve.

Tips

  •   You can use full fat milk instead of skimmed milk.
