Recipes

Prepare Pandan Pannacotta

  • Combine the cream, milk and sugar in a saucepan and bring to the boil.
  • Rehydrate gelatine leaves with cold water. Squeeze dry and set aside.
  • Remove from heat, then add gelatine and allow to infuse for 15 minutes.
  • Combine coconut milk and Pandan essence and add it to the mixture.
  • Strain and cool over ice to thicken.
  • Fill plastic dariole moulds with pannacotta mixture and refrigerate at least 6 hours to set.

Prepare Coconut Jelly

  • Warm the coconut milk with the sugar.
  • Rehydrate gelatine leaves with cold water. Squeeze dry and set aside.
  • Add gelatine leaves to the coconut milk and strain to remove any lumps.
  • Pour about 1cm over the already set pandan pannacotta layer.
  • Refrigerate at least 6 hours to set.

Prepare toasted coconut

  • Set oven to 200°C and prepare a tray with silicone paper.
  • Spread a thin layer of shredded coconut onto the tray.
  • Place into the oven and toast until golden brown.
  • Remove from oven to cool. Set aside for later.

Assembling the dessert

  • Sprinkle some toasted coconut on to the plate.
  • Un-mould pannacotta and place it in the middle of the plate on top of the toasted coconut.
  • Sprinkle a bit more of the toasted coconut on top of the pannacotta.
  • Decorate with palm sugar lattice (optional).
This dessert can be done in advance (a couple of days before) for a function/dinner. As it is cream based, it is important to refrigerate it and when unmoulded, to be served immediately. It can only keep for a week.
