Black Currant Pudding

I prepared this pudding keeping in mind how kids love anything sweet, and also how they stay away from anything healthy like vegetables and fruits. So I thought and made this pudding from nothing but fresh juice, and added more fruits in it to make it healthier. I am sure kids will love this because it is everything they like: Sweet, colorful, jelly like and parents will love it because it’s easy to make, can be preserved in refridgerator for 2-3 days and did I mention that it’s healthy?? ;) J

Ingredients: Serves 3

1 ½ Cup fresh Black Currant juice

2 tablespoon sugar

4-5 tablespoon water

A little more than 1 tablespoon agar-agar flakes

Garnish:

6 Green Grapes

6 Black Currants

Recipe:

In a sauce pan pour juice and water together. Turn heat on at low.

Add sugar and stir till it dissolves.

Add agar-agar flakes, and bring the juice to boil. Then skim the impurities.

Simmer for 8-9 minutes. Meanwhile prepare three bowls by dividing grapes and currants equally in them.

After 8-9 minutes, turn the heat off. And let the juice cool down a little. Then divide juice equally in three bowls and leave it to cool down completely. It will start to set when at room temperature. Shift bowls in refrigerator. And pudding will be ready to eat when it’s completely chilled. Texture will be a little somewhere between liquid and jelly. You can make it a complete jelly by adding more agar-agar before boiling process.

Note:

This pudding can also be made with any other kind of juice.

If making fresh juice at home, strain it nicely.
