What to get ready

• Rice flour 240 g
• Tapioca starch 100 g
• Pandan leaves 16 leaves
• Coconut milk 600 ml
• Palm sugar 200 g
• Ice cubes 32 pieces

Method

2. 2 Mix rice flour and tapioca flour with pandan leaf water, then heat, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens and becomes translucent.
3. 3 Pour the hot batter into a sieve with round holes, pressing it down so the batter falls directly into the bowl of ice water below.
