BUKO PANDAN RECIPE

 

“Eid Mubarak”…

 

It was Eid Al Fitr in UAE starting on Friday and since I am supposed to be on duty at work on Saturday, I have one extra day to enjoy with my family.

 

We were cleaning our house and kitchen when I saw that we still have powdered Mr. Gulaman pack so I thought of making buko pandan. We have some of the ingredients so I give it a go.

 

It turns out to be yummy and we enjoyed it with my family. Hope that this simple recipe will add sweetness in your table.

 

 

INGREDIENTS:

1 pack                 Mr. Gulaman unflavored gelatin (green color)
1 liter                   Water
½ bottle            Macapuno
1/2 can               Condensed milk
2 cans                 Nestle cream
1/2 cup               Sugar
vanilla/pandan extract (if available)

Sago/ sweet corn/ cheese (optional)

PROCEDURE:

1.      In a cooking pot, dissolve gelatin in 1 liter water. Bring to boil while mixing constantly.

2.     Add sugar and mix until well dissolved.

3.      Transfer to a container and let cool at room temperature.

4.     Remove from mold and chop into bite size/small pieces.

5.      In a large bowl, mix together gelatin and macapuno.

6.     Pour in condensed milk and Nestle Cream.

7.      Mix and well blended.

8.     Chill before serving.

 

TIPS:    You may add cooked sago or sweet corn (in can) or cheese to add more flavor. I used some left over sweet corn; just be careful not to put too much or it will overpower the buko pandan flavor.

You can also adjust the sweetness by either adding more condensed milk or making it less.
