Ingredients

Chia seeds20 g
Unsweetened soya milk150 ml
Soya rather than oat or almond because it has as much protein as cow's milk, which lifts the figure.
Cocoa powder2 tsp, about 6 g
Banana60 g
Just over half a medium banana. Slice it at the end rather than the night before, or it browns. Peeled weight. A medium banana is about 100 g without the skin.
Granulated sweetenerTo taste

Method

Whisk the cocoa into a splash of the soya milk first to make a smooth paste, then whisk in the rest of the milk. Cocoa added to the full amount floats in lumps.
Stir in the chia and sweetener, leave five minutes, stir again and put the pot in the fridge overnight.
Slice the banana over the top just before you eat it.

Worth knowing

The paste step matters more with cocoa than anything else. Once the lumps are in they do not come out.
Sweetener here is a matter of taste. Unsweetened cocoa and chia together are bitter enough that most people want a pinch.
