Nauru coconut mousse recipe is really easy and a delightful sweet treat.

If you are making the coconut crusted fish, just grate a bit more fresh coconut for this recipe as well.  It truly makes all the difference when using fresh coconut.

This recipe calls for agar-agar which is like a gelatin.  If you can’t find agar-agar you can substitute gelatin in equal amounts for this recipe.

Keep in mind that you will need to have it refrigerate for about 4 hours to set up.

Also to make it pretty, I just roasted some fresh coconut for the topping.

A wonderfully light dessert, you will love it!
