Equipment

  • 1 potato ricer

Ingredients

  • cups water
  • ½ cup mung bean starch
  • ¼ cup rice flour
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • ¼ tsp pandan extract
  • tsp sea salt

Instructions

  • Prepare a potato ricer with a coarse disc, to be used after the pandan batter is ready.
  • In a small pot, add water, sugar, mung bean starch and rice flour, then immediately whisk vigorously to avoid clumps from forming.
  • Add salt and pandan extract, then turn the fire to medium high and continue to whisk until the batter thickens.
  • Once the batter is thickened, turn off the fire and quickly prepare a large ice bath.
  • In batches, place the pandan batter into the potato ricer and press gently until 2-3 inch worm-like pandan droplets enters the ice bath.
  • Continue until the entire batter is completely used.
  • Enjoy the pandan jelly with drinks or desserts, such as the southern Vitenamese dessert che banh lot or cendol.
