Notes on ingredients

Oats

If this recipe needs to be gluten-free, buy gluten-free oats. However, a side-note is that oats ARE gluten-free. It’s just that companies can’t state gluten-free because of the manufacturing process.

Sweetener

I love to use raw local honey for this recipe, but other sweeteners you can use that are vegan could be;

Coconut blossom nectar
Maple syrup
Brown rice syrup

Thickener

I used agar agar, also known simply as agar, is a natural gelling agent derived from red seaweed. Agar agar is commonly used as a vegan substitute for gelatin, making it suitable for those following a plant-based or vegan diet. It is tasteless, odourless, and transparent, allowing it to be easily incorporated into various recipes. With its unique ability to create a firm gel texture, agar agar is frequently used in desserts like jellies, custards, and puddings.

Coconut milk

Do not use coconut milk that contains gums or emulsifiers. Only use coconut milk that contains one ingredient, like this brand biona. The gums will stop the sauce from thickening, and it will curdle and split. It took me a few attempts till I realised this. Buy coconut milk online or from this company. Well easy, which I love.

Mangoes

I used frozen mango in this recipe because I find the ones in the supermarket bland and rock-solid, and they take weeks to ripen and still aren't sweet.

If you really prefer using fresh mango, try the Indian or Pakistan variety. They are the sweetest and tastiest. You can buy these at your local Asian or Indian shop.
