Anmitsu Delight

Anmitsu Delight is a refreshing Japanese dessert that combines a variety of textures and flavors, featuring soft agar jelly, sweetened fruit, and a drizzle of rich, homemade syrup. This Paleo version replaces traditional ingredients with wholesome alternatives, making it a guilt-free indulgence.

Ingredients

• Agar-agar powder - 1 teaspoon
• Water - 250 ml
• Coconut sugar - 2 tablespoons
• Fresh mango - 1/2 medium, diced
• Kiwi - 1 medium, diced
• Blueberries - 50 grams
• Chia seeds - 1 tablespoon
• Coconut milk - 100 ml
• Unsweetened shredded coconut - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. In a small saucepan, combine the water and agar-agar powder. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the agar-agar is completely dissolved.
2. Once dissolved, bring the mixture to a gentle boil and then reduce the heat. Stir in the coconut sugar until fully dissolved.
3. Remove the saucepan from heat and pour the mixture into a mold or small bowls. Let it cool at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to set.
4. While the agar is setting, prepare the fruit by dicing the mango and kiwi, and wash the blueberries. Set aside.
5. In a small bowl, combine the chia seeds with coconut milk and let it sit for about 10 minutes to thicken.
6. Once the agar has set, cut it into cubes and divide them between two serving bowls.
7. Top each bowl with the diced mango, kiwi, and blueberries. Drizzle the chia seed coconut mixture on top and sprinkle with shredded coconut.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy your Anmitsu Delight!
