Tapioca


This very common Chinese dessert made with soft and chewy sago, pureed mangoes and coconut cream is a refreshing break from heavy cakes and pies. In Asia, sago can be bought cooked in many markets. If you can get your hands on cooked sago, then, this is a no-cook dessert. If not, you can buy dried sago and boil them at home.

Ingredients:

1 cup sugar
3 tbsp. grated coconut
3 tbsp. confectioners sugar
3 tbsp. pearl tapioca
2 cups milk
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla or 1/2 tsp. coconut extract

Direction:

Soak pearl tapioca in water overnight.
In a double boiler, bring milk nearly to boiling point (steam will be rising). Add a pinch of salt and the soaked tapioca; cook for 30 minutes.
Beat yolks of eggs with 1 cup sugar and add coconut.
Beat 10 minutes longer. Pour into a pudding dish.
Beat the whites of eggs into a stiff froth with the powdered sugar. Pour over the top. Sprinkle with coconut.
Bake in a 400°F oven until top is brown (about 10-15 minutes).

Suman

Ingredients:
Direction:
  1. Cook malagkit just like you cook rice in your rice cooker but instead of using water, use coconut milk - about two-thirds of the can, when cooking malagkit, you have to use a little bit less of liquid than cooking regular rice.
  2. we don't use ginger.. we use langka
  3. If you don't have ginger, add a tablespoon or two of anise extract or if you have the seeds, a sprinkle will do.
  4. Once the rice is cooked, you can wrap them in the banana leaves (or foil) like you wrap lumpia.
  5. Take about two tablespoonsful of the rice, put them on top of your banana leaf sheet that you have cut into square pieces about 6 inches by 6 inches or so, then roll to make a log, then twist both ends and tuck under the log.
  6. Note: in order for your banana leaf not to tear, you have to run the leaf over a flame.
  7. You also need to wipe the leaf with a piece of damp cloth.
  8. Place the rice on top of the darker side of the leaf (this side doesn't have that whitish powdery stuff that covers the underside of the banana leaf).
  9. Now, after you finished wrapping your rice, put them in a casserole or a large sauce pan, then boil the hell out of it, covered, again using coconut milk just enough to cover your pile (use the remaining coconut milk diluted with water).
  10. I remember my mother used to cook the wrapped malagkit overnight but i suppose you can finish this in one hour just how I did the batch above - or until the liquid evaporates.
  11. Serve rolled in sugar or as a side dish for ripe manila mangoes.

1/3 lb shrimp, peeled, deveined and minced
2 tablespoon fish sauce
1/2 lb green beans, french cut
1 small cabbage shredded, (approx 2 lbs)
1 large carrots, julienned

10 romaine lettuce leaves, cut into 2 horizontally

Brush a nonstick pan with oil and place over low heat. Ladle in 2 tablespoons batter, swirl to cover pan and pour off excess. Cook until the wrapper can be lifted with a spatula without sticking (if batter bubbles, the pan is too hot). Turn and cook just to warm the other side. Set aside and cover with a towel to keep warm. You can also keep the wrappers in a tortilla warmer.

Buko Pandan






Buko Pandan Salad is a favourite Filipino salad served in almost every kind of party and special occasions in the Philippines and around the world where Filipinos live. This dessert is addicting.

When I was younger, I always remember my Papa puts some pandan leaves in cooking rice. He says it adds aroma to the cooked rice. I also remember in one of my seminars before, pandan leaves or a pandan plant is also a useful repellent for pests such as cockroaches. Just put the leaves or the plant in a place where cockroaches lurk around. This leaf also has medicinal properties.

Today, pandan leaf has become a widely used flavouring in many forms—in bakery products, drinks, desserts and other food products. The leaves are used like we use vanilla flavouring.
Pandan is used widely in Southeast Asian cuisine, so if you’re from the West you would probably find them in Asian markets.

Ingredients:
8 leaves of Pandan - cleaned well
5 Buko (Coconut)not too hard, not too soft- Grated to strips
Water from 5 Buko (approx. 10 cups)
3 small cans of Nestle Cream
1 medium can of Condensed Milk
2 bars of Green Gulaman
1 3/4 Cups Sugar (more if you want it sweeter)
1 cup Kaong (optional)
Procedures:
  1. Boil buko water from 5 coconuts together with 8 pandan leaves that are individually twisted to break the fibers and expose the juice. Simmer for 20 minutes.
  2. Before adding 2 bars of gulaman, make sure you remove the pandan leaves and check if the remaining coconut water is equal to 8 cups - 1 bar of gulaman is good for 4 cups of liquid. If it is not 8 cups, less will mean hard gulaman and more than 8 cups will result in mushy soft gulaman. Ensuring gulaman is well-dissolved stir well. Add sugar while mixing. Do this for 5 minutes.
  3. Pour through a strainer into cooling trays. Wait till it cools and hardens, then put in fridge.
  4. Meanwhile, mix the grated buko with the 3 cans of cream and 1 can of condensed milk.
  5. Add kaong if you prefer.
  6. Get gulaman from ref and cut into 1 cm cubes. Mix with buko mixture.
