Gula Melaka and Coconut Milk Agar Agar

Ingredients

1000ml water
250g gula melaka, chopped roughly (Adjust according to taste)
12g agar powder (1 packet)
1 pandan leaf, tied into a knot
200ml thick coconut milk (1 packet)
pinch of salt

Method

Place water, gula melaka, agar agar powder and pandan leaf into a pan and bring it to a boil.

Lower heat and simmer until agar powder is completely dissolves.

Remove pandan leaf.

Add a pinch of salt to coconut milk and pour it into the same pan.

Bring it to a boil and immediately remove from heat.

Pour jelly into a glass bowl or cake tin.

Leave jelly to cool and then chill in the refrigerator.

The jelly should separate nicely into 2 layers – a clear gula melaka layer on the bottom and a coconut layer on top.
