Instructions

  1. Take 55 g of whipped topping out of the freezer and let it thaw in the fridge while you work, it must be soft enough to fold but still cold.
  2. Tip 24 g of instant pistachio pudding mix into a medium mixing bowl and add 170 g of crushed pineapple straight from the tin, juice and all. Do not drain it: the juice is the only liquid the pudding gets.
  3. Stir briskly with a rubber spatula for about 2 minutes, scraping the bowl, until no dry powder remains and the mixture has thickened to a soft, glossy pudding that holds a ribbon from the spatula.
