Ingredients

Tapioca Pearls:

• 100 gr white Tapioca pearl, 120 gr Sugar

• 1.2 litre Water, Food colouring/Extract*

Coconut milk sauce:

• 2 Pandan leaves, ¼ tsp Salt, 30-40 gr Sugar

• 400 ml thick Coconut milk, ¾ tbsp Cornstarch+Water

Directions

• Pearls: Divide all pearls ingredients evenly, depends on how many colour you’ll be using & then cook them separately. In a pot, boil Water. After it boiled, add in tapioca pearl & extract/color. Put the lid on & cook pearls over medium heat for ~ 10 minutes. Stir pearls so it won’t stick to the pot bottom & got burned. Cover & cook again. Repeat the procedure until pearls almost cooked (only a tiny white solid spot could be seen in the middle of pearls). If the water reduced too much during cooking, you could add a bit more hot water. Add in sugar; stir until it’s cooked (became translucent, no more hard solid part in the centre). Remove from the heat, strain pearls & then rinse it with cold water to stop the cooking process & it’s not sticking one to another. Set it aside.

• Coconut milk sauce: Slice pandan leaves into 2 or 3 pieces. Combine cornstarch & enough water, just enough to dilute it; set it aside. In a pot, cook coconut milk, pandan, salt & sugar until it’s boiling over medium heat; stir constantly. Add in cornstarch mixture; cook & stir just until the sauce rather thickens. Remove sauce from the pot.

• Arrange tapioca pearls in serving plates/bowls & then pour the coconut milk sauce over.

• * You could use extract such as pandan, strawberry, rose, banana, mango or purple yam.
