Cocoa protein pudding with agar and pea milk

Ingredients

For 1 serving

• Pea milk220 ml
• Pea protein powder20 g
• Unsweetened cocoa powder10 g
• Agar agar1.5 g
• Maple syrup15 g
• Vanilla extract1 teaspoon

Method

1. In a small pan whisk the cocoa and agar agar into the cold pea milk until there are no lumps: agar must be dissolved cold or it clumps.
2. Bring to the boil over medium heat and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until slightly thicker: agar only sets if it boils.
3. Take off the heat, let it cool for 3 minutes and whisk in the pea protein, maple syrup and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Pour into a mould rinsed with cold water and leave to set in the fridge for 2 hours, until firm to the touch; turn it out or serve it in the mould.
