Place the coconut in a mixing bowl and break it up with a fork. Gradually stir in the milk.

Sprinkle the gelatine over 8 tblsps water in a heatproof bowl and leave to soak for 1 to 2 minutes. Stand the bowl in a pan of hot water and leave until the gelatine has melted, while stirring occasionally. Add the sugar and stir until dissolved. Stir the dissolved gelatine into the coconut milk.

To Serve

Loosen the edge of one pudding from the side of the mould. Dip the mould into hot water for one to two seconds, then invert a serving plate on top. Hold plate and mould firmly and invert, giving a sharp shake halfway round. Now lift off mould. Turn out remaining pudding in the same way. Decorate with cherries. Service 6
