Mango Coconut Agar Agar by Angela Seah Thulin
For mango lovers this is definitely going to be a treat, just make sure that you use ripe mangoes for the best flavour.
Agar-agar, a vegetarian gelatin substitute, is very rich in fiber and best of all it is low on calories. Best for making dessert, just omit sugar and use any low calorie sweetener to prepare a healthier dessert.
It's 24 degrees in Sweden! Let's have a cooling dessert!

mint leaves

Steps -
Mango layer
1. Using a blender, puree the mango and orange juice until smooth.

3. Pour the mixture into a mould. Add mango cubes and mint leaves if you like. Chill it or allow the surface to set and no longer moves when you jiggle it.
