Pudding Base

Method

Preparation

1

Rinse the Rice

In a fine-mesh strainer, rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps to remove excess starch.

2

Combine Ingredients

In a medium saucepan, combine coconut milk, water, rinsed rice, sugar, salt, and pandan leaves. Stir to combine.

3

Cook the Pudding

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has thickened.

4

Remove Pandan Leaves

Once the rice is cooked, remove the pandan leaves from the pudding.

5

Cool and Serve

Let the pudding cool slightly before serving. You can serve it warm or chilled.

Garnishing

6

Add Toppings

Serve the pudding in bowls topped with toasted coconut flakes, fresh mango slices, and mint leaves for garnish.
