Mango Pudding

Mangoes is in season now and I bought a few last few days ago.  Since it is ripe I got to clear it fast.  Chance upon the recipe from food-4tots.com, so I decided to give it a try.  It is a good try.  The natural smell from mango in the pudding is nice.  For those who wish to try, go ahead.  Sweetness got to adjust according to how sweet is your ripe mangoes.
