An easy-to-prepare and easy-to-cook dessert recipe for you.

Tender coconut water – 2 cups

China grass/ Agar Agar – 10 gm

Tender coconut flesh  –  2 (only thin scrapings)

Condensed milk-  1 to 1½  cups

Method:

  1. Add the tender coconut in a mixer and run the wifer for a few seconds to get a quick puree. Keep it aside.
  2. Soak china grass in tender coconut water for about 10 minutes.
  3. Heat the tender coconut water and china grass mixture over a low flame. Stir and cook till the china grass dissolves completely. The melting of china grass takes time, so have patience till it gets  dissolved fully.
  4. Strain the cooked coconut water and china grass and keep it aside.
  5. Let it cool down.
  6. Now add condensed milk and tender coconut puree. Mix them. Pour it into the moulds.
  7. Keep them in the freezer for 10 minutes and then refrigerate for 2-4 hours for the pudding to settle well.
  8. While serving, invert the dish onto a plate and you can top it with almonds or just slice into pieces and enjoy the dish.

Note:

  1. Mix the china grass mixture and tender coconut mixture only after the china grass cools down.
  2. Do not forget to strain the coconut water – china grass mixture.
  3. If you want, you can reduce the condensed milk and add sugar and make it a condensed milk – sugar combo instead of only condensed milk.
  4. Instead of pureeing all the tender coconut meat, you can puree half of it and add the remaining as small slices into the mixture.
