Monday Dessert: Pandan Jelly in Coconut Milk. 🌱😋❤️🌺

Hello everyone, hope you have a great start of the week! 🤗

Yesterday I visited my parents and they gave me some pandan leaves from their friend’s garden, so I just made pandan jelly dessert. It is served hot or cold. 😋👍

Recipe:

Boil pandan leaves in water and add vegan agar powder to make jelly. Wait till it forms shape after few hours in the fridge and cut in pieces. Add coconut milk to serve as jelly drink.

I find this is so soothing on a hot summer day that filled with beautiful fragrant from the leaves and plenty of vitamins, antioxidants such as: Beta-carotene, Vitamin C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin. It has natural green color, not food additive color. 😁👍

Thank you Jerry for saying that about my pandan jelly dessert, much appreciated! 😁🙏

It’s very popular ingredient we incorporate in South East Asia culinary and I love to prepare in this simple way to rip all the benefits of these leaves. 😊❤️

This is my first time hearing of pandan and its wonderful to hear about all its healthy benefits. I see the fruits are rich in iron which is unique for a fruit😁. The pic of your pandan jelly in coconut milk looks so beautiful against your background sky photo😊. Thank you for sharing your knowledge of pandan and have a great day🤗🙏.

Thank you Zazen very much for saying that! 🤗🙏

It is absolutely beautiful and delicious to have this treat from time to time freshly like this. 😋👍 They do make into powder form so you can purchase and try. It can make into a wonderful tea to drink so healthy and delicious.

Hope you have a wonderful day as well! 😊

Awe thank you very much Happyman4 for saying that, much appreciated! 😁🙏

You always know and use all the best herbs and veggies from South East Asia. 😋 My mom used most of them for her sticky rice with green bean paste to make breakfast/dessert with coconut cream so I have just a few leaves left to make into jelly as the most I can make.😂 Your children know how delicious pandan treats so how could you pass by without stopping?! 🤷‍♀️😂👍

Hope you have a beautiful rest of the evening! 😊

Wow absolutely beautiful pandan plants and Star fruits tree! 🤩👍❤️Your wife is absolutely brilliant with pandan usage as it helps for arthritis, blood pressure, many good things just by boiling and have as a cup of tea. When you have plants like that in the garden, I would make it everyday too. 😁

You must have green fingers that your star fruits tree is full of fruits and they look so healthy and juicy, must be very sweet when you let them ripen on the tree. I wonder how long did it take to give out this many fruits? 🤔 You make me wanna go to whole food market just to get a few now 😂. When it is still green, it makes a perfect bowl of salad so delicious. 😋👍

You did so well with your garden and cooking always. 😇

Now you know there’s no point of pretending not to hear your kids because you will have to give in in the end always. 😂👍

Love warm rain in Thailand, it is nice for the garden and freshening the air. Hmmm it’s time for you to go to the market for some fresh produce now I guess!😋

I love lemon grass in broth with mushrooms they call Tom Yum Kung I think. 🤔 Very strong and powerful flavor.

Yes definitely stay safely away from the crowd at this moment. Wow these Chinese broccoli looks so fresh and bursting with flavor. I love shiitake mushrooms, I have some in the fridge too, prob not as fresh as you can get over there though and I’m thinking making something with them too. 😁👍 Your meal is so balanced and full of nutrients, enjoy your food creation in the kitchen Happyman4, your family is very lucky to have you. Great team work with your wife! 😇👍

[Hidden]

Wowwwww perfect cooking broccoli, not one single stem overcooked 😇👍

You make me hungry now that I’m on salad and smoothie today 😂😅. Will be extra hungry looking at your delicious food posts 😁

I never had pink lime, just for the color is so pretty! 😊

That looks so refreshing Koko, amazing posts with such wonderful goodness 😁

[Hidden in reply to Kitten-whiskers]

Thank you Debs for saying that, much appreciated! 🤗🙏

This is one of our popular plant we incorporate in many food and desserts that beneficial to our health. When you just boil into tea, it is a natural remedy for arthritis. I think they do grind into powder to purchase if we can’t get it fresh. Wonderful treat I adore very much! 😇👍
