Awfully Strawberry 粉嫩粉嫩草莓布丁。。。我以为我是少女

有些食物不只是用嘴巴吃，也是用眼睛吃的，例如这个。单单看这甜品粉嫩的外形就让我有股甜滋滋的感觉，仿佛回到少女时代。

Korea strawberry is in the season and it is getting cheaper here. I cannot resist getting a few punnets each time I see them on sales. I can easily finish a punnet by myself at one go.

Today I am presenting this simple dessert aka Awfully Strawberry Pudding that made of all strawberry goodness. I combined my favourite Korea strawberry with my favourite strawberry yogurt and milk which are both from the brand “Meiji”.

To make the pudding is very easy, just blend everything together and add gelatin solution. I don’t even bother to cook the sugar with water. I just add sugar bit by bit (to taste) while blending the rest of the ingredients. This works as well.

Awfully Strawberry Pudding

Ingredients:
250g fresh strawberries (I used Korea one)
2 tubs (280g) Meiji strawberry yogurt
1 cup Meiji strawberry milk
2 – 3 tbsp whipping cream (need not whip)
4 – 5 tbsp sugar to taste (or more, depending on the sweetness of the strawberries)
2 tbsp gelatin powder
6 tbsp water
Extra fresh strawberries to be served with the pudding

Method:
1) Measure water into a bowl and sprinkle in the gelatin (without stirring). Set aside to allow the gelatin grains to swell (10 mins) before setting the bowl over a pot of simmering hot water. Stir with a spoon and once the gelatin melts, remove the bowl from the pot and set aside to cool to room temperature.
2) Cut strawberries into small chunks and blend with the rest of the ingredients till smooth. Add the gelatin solution, mix well.
3) Now the mixture will have a lot bubbles on the surface. Pour the mixture in cups/moulds over the back of a spoon (one hand holding the mixer jug while the other hand holding a spoon, facing down), this way you will get smooth mixture without bubbles. Cover with cling wrap and leave to chill in the fridge till the pudding is set. Serve immediately once remove from fridge.

Note:
1) Whipping cream is optional, you may omit it but it gives the pudding a creamer texture.
2) Feel free to use other brand of strawberry milk and yogurt if you can’t find Meiji brand.
