I am not a big fan of puddings. But when I announced the theme for MEC, I was reminded of the pudding recipe in the book that came along with the microwave. So decided to give a try. It was very easy to make and got pretty decent result too. The original recipe has gelatin in it. I replaced it with china grass. You can whip up a pudding with very few ingredients and in less time.
You need
1 cup milk
2 tspn cocoa powder
1 tbspn china grass
1/2 tspn vanilla essence
2 tbspn powdered sugar
1/4 cup water
Garnish
1 tblspn Sweet cream
few glazed cherries
Method
In 1/4 cup of warm water, mix china grass and keep aside to dissolve. In a microwave safe bowl, mix milk,vanilla essence, powdered sugar. Microwave at 100% power for 5 minutes. Make sure your bowl is big enough that milk doesn't overflow on boiling. Now add the dissolved china grass to the bowl. Mix and microwave at 60% power for 3 minutes.
Transfer it to the serving dish. Leave it, till it reaches room temperature. Refrigerate and serve chilled. Garnish with sweet cream and cherries/strawberries.
