Notes

This recipe yields 6 regular servings of pudding. You can set the pudding in a big mould and slice before serving too.
You can double or halve the recipe.
Add few drops of coconut extract for coconut flavor.
I added some rose syrup just for color and you can skip it if you don't prefer. 
The pudding keeps well for 2-3 days in refrigerator. Keep covered.
Agar puddings set very well at room temperature too.
