Great the uploading problem in Blogger is resolved! Fell in love with the combination of Nata De Coco, Sterculia and Red Agar Agar. It looks lovely and yummy too. To make this dessert more nutritious, I used red dates. Preparation: 5 mins, standing time 30 mins, Cooking Time: 10 mins
Ingredients (serves 2-4)
° 12 seedless red dates
° 500ml water
° 2 pandan leaves (screwpine), tied into a knot
° 1 tablespoon sugar or to taste
° 2 sterculia seeds/mollow nut, lightly bruised
° 50g-75g agar agar (jelly), cubed
° 360g Nata De Coco
Method
1. Soak sterculia seeds in ample water for 20-30 minutes until the flesh has expanded into a loose, jelly like mass. Peel off and discard the skin. Drain well and set aside.
2. Place the red dates, water and pandan leaves in a pot. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Add in sugar and discard pandan leaves.
3. Mix all the ingredients and ladle into individual bowl.
4. Serve hot or chilled.

Hi Crystal,
ReplyDeleteDon't laugh, I still haven't tried the sterculia seeds I brought back from Singapore. Next August, F. comes in France and I'm waiting for his visit for us to discover all these delicacies. Thanks for this recipe. Your blog will help us a lot for trying new ingredients.
I'm glad you can upload pictures again. Blogger sometimes makes its strikes!
Wonderful...!
