Corn Agar-Agar

Another simple agar-agar recipe. Feel free to replace coconut milk with unsweetened soymilk for a healthy choice, you might have to use more soymilk and lesser water. If you love cream style sweet corn, use more.

Preparation: 2 mins, Cooking time: 5 mins

Ingredients (makes 30)
° 12g agar-agar powder
° 250g sugar, or to taste
° 1 litre water
° 4 pandan leaves (screwpine), tied into a knot
° 1 pack (380g) sweet corn (cream style)
° 250g coconut milk

Method
1. Dissolve agar-agar powder in 1 litre water in a pot. Add the sugar, pandan leaves and bring to a boil.
2. Remove pot from heat and discard pandan leaves. Stir in the cream corn, coconut milk and mix well.
3. Pour the agar-agar mixture into the jelly mould and leave to cool before refrigerating until chilled.
4. Serve chilled.

  1. Personally I only prefer pure agar agar, don't like the taste of coconut milk agar agar, but I think I could try sweet corn.:P Hmm, Seeing your post reminds me of good old days when we used to make colorful agar agar in different moulds such as goldfishes & roses as you had posted. I wonder if the moulds are still around... Good idea of dessert on hot days...

    Cheers,
    Sunny :-)
