Equipment
- 5 x 4oz cups
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin powder
- ¼ cup water
- 13.5 fluid ounces full fat coconut milk
- 5 tablespoons sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Toppings
- Navel orange slices
- Blood orange slices
- Crushed pistachio
Instructions
- In a small cup, combine the gelatin powder and water together and whisk well with a fork immediately. Leave for about 5 minutes. The mix will have a sponge-like consistency.
- Heat up the coconut milk in a saucepan over low heat. Add in the sugar, salt and vanilla extract. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely. Do not let the mix boil as this will weaken the setting power of gelatin.
- Microwave the gelatin+water mix at 20 seconds increments until the gelatin has completely dissolved. Alternatively, melt in a double boiler. Pour the gelatin mix into the saucepan and stir well over low heat.
- Pour into small (4oz) size cups and refrigerate for 3+ hours until set.
- Serve with orange slices and crushed pistachio.
