  • Tapioca Pudding – Green Tapioca Pearls with Coconut



    Tapioca Pudding

    We used green tapioca pearls for this Thai Tapioca Pudding. Green tapioca pearls are coloured and flavoured with Pandanus leaves. The coconut flesh should be from a young coconut and will be soft and moist. If you cannot find green tapioca pearls, just use ordinary tapioca pearls and put 2-3 Pandanus leaves in the water when you boil the tapioca pearls, removing the leaves when the Tapioca is cooked.

    This Mung Bean Recipe is for a delicious Thai Dessert called Tao Suan. The Mung Beans must be hulled or skinned first and then soaked in warm water for 4 hours before using. Our recipe uses Tapioca Flour but you can substitute Corn Flour if you wish.

    Mango Sticky Rice – Thai Dessert

    Mango Sticky Rice is a Thai Dessert that tastes simply sublime. What could be more delicious than ripe luscious sweet mango and Thai Sticky Rice soaked in Coconut milk. Every visitor to Thailand must try this dessert at least once during their stay but it is also easy to make at home if you have access to glutinous rice. Unfortunately there is no substitute for glutinous rice.

    Cassava root, perhaps better known as the source of Tapioca flour, also makes a wonderful Thai dessert. Thai Candied Cassava root is gloriously sticky, sweet, chewy and delicious but certainly not for anyone on a diet, although you can always make up for it later.

    Banana Dessert – Thai Candied Bananas

    Thai Coconut Cream – Cocktail Jelly



    cocktail-jelly

    This cocktail jelly with Thai coconut cream uses all natural colourings. The colours of the cocktail jelly come from Hibiscus tea and Pandanus leaves and of course the Thai coconut cream. You can use any type and shape of mold you wish. We used cocktail glasses as we were going to serve this Thai dessert at a dinner party.

    Thai Coffee Dessert



    thai-coffee-dessert

    We used Thai Arabica coffee in our Thai Coffee Dessert but you can use any instant coffee. Our recipe for Thai Coffee Dessert uses Agar Agar as the setting agent. Agar Agar is made from seaweed so is suitable for vegetarians. If you substitute Gelatin for the Agar Agar you do not need to bring the water to the boil after adding the gelatin. We have found that Agar Agar sets a little firmer than Gelatin especially in our hot climate and also sets at slightly higher temperatures.

    Coconut Cream Recipe – Custard Pumpkin

    This coconut cream recipe is from Thailand. Custard Pumpkin is a fun dessert to prepare and is ideal for Halloween or Thanksgiving. Our Custard Pumpkin Coconut Cream Recipe should be eaten cold. You eat everything, the custard, the pumpkin and the skin which is why it’s so important to clean the pumpkin before use.
