Cendol
Ingredients:
Homemade Cendol:
-
3 cups pandan water (blend 2 pandan leaves with warm water and strain)
-
1 cup rice flour
-
1 tbsp corn flour
-
1 tbsp lime water
-
1 can Ayam coconut milk superlight
Brown Sugar Syrup:
-
3 piece gula melaka
-
2 cups brown sugar
-
1 pandan leaf (knotted)
-
1 cup water
Additional Toppings:
-
Red kidney beans
-
Cream-style corn
-
Grass jelly
Preparation:
-
Mix together pandan water, rice flour, corn flour, and lime water in a pot, and cook on medium heat until it makes a shiny thick paste. continuous stirring needed!
-
Prepare a bowl with iced water. Then push the paste through a ladle with holes into the water to get the short noodle-like shape of the chendol. Alternatively, you could also put the paste in a piping bag with a very small opening and pipe the paste into the water individually.
-
For the sugar syrup, combine the gula melaka, brown sugar, pandan leaf and water in a small pot and simmer until thick.
-
If you have an ice shaver at home, shave some ice into a bowl, then pour the Ayam coconut milk superlight over it and top sugar syrup, chendol, and other preferred toppings you desire.
-
If you don’t have an ice shaver, a powerful blender can also crush ice to smaller bits.
