1. How to make noodle-shaped coconut jelly
1.1 What you need to prepare
Fresh coconut water
Shredded young coconut meat
Coconut milk
Pandan leaf juice
Agar powder
Sugar
1.2 How to make noodle-shaped coconut jelly
1.2.1 Slice the young coconut
Rinse the coconut meat, then cut it into long, thin strips. Soak the strips in a mixture of salt water and lemon juice, then rinse and drain well. This step helps keep the coconut white and clean.
1.2.2 Prepare the jelly mixtures
In a bowl, mix sugar and agar powder evenly. Then prepare three separate pots of mixture
Pandan leaf juice
Fresh coconut water
Coconut milk
1.2.3 Cook the jelly mixture
Cook each pot over medium heat while stirring until the sugar and agar powder are fully dissolved. Skim off any foam to keep the jelly smooth and clear.
Add the shredded coconut to the agar mixture, then stir gently so the coconut strands spread evenly throughout the jelly to avoid clumping together.
1.2.4 Pour the mixture into molds to create layers
You can use baking molds, plastic containers, or glass cups. Pour the first layer of jelly into the mold. Once the first layer sets slightly, pour the next layer (for example, the coconut milk or pandan layer). If you want a more colorful jelly, repeat this step to create 2 or 3 alternating layers, each with a different flavor.
Finally, let the jelly cool completely, then refrigerate until firm.
When serving, remove it from the mold, then cut it into small cubes or long strands as you like. Noodle-shaped coconut jelly tastes best when chilled. You can enjoy it on its own or use it as a topping for sweet soups, milk, or milk tea.
For this recipe, you can freely choose your jelly flavor:
Coconut water jelly
Two-layer jelly: coconut water, pandan
Two-layer jelly: coconut water, coconut milk
