Add the water to a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatin on top. Leave aside to allow the gelatin to bloom for at least 5 minutes.

The gelatin will absorb the liquid and look like swollen translucent granules.

Add the sugar and coconut milk to a thick-bottomed saucepan and bring it to a gentle simmer on a medium-low flame.

Scoop the dragon fruit pulp into a bowl. Smash the pulp with the help of a fork.

Add the dragon fruit to the coconut milk in the saucepan.

Stir in the gelatin and mix for about 1 minute.

Pour and evenly divide the liquid into serving glasses and refrigerate until the pudding is soft but firm to touch.

This will take at least 4-5 hours to set. Serve this dessert chilled directly in serving bowls or glasses.
