Ingredients

  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 2 teaspoons gelatin powder
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup warm water (to dissolve gelatin)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Gelatin: Sprinkle the gelatin powder over warm water and allow it to bloom for about 5 minutes until fully dissolved and slightly thickened.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk and sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Mix Gelatin with Coconut Milk: Add the bloomed gelatin to the coconut milk mixture and stir thoroughly to ensure the gelatin is evenly distributed.
  4. Chill the Mixture: Pour the mixture into serving molds or cups. Place them in the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours or until firm.
  5. Serve: Once set, remove from the fridge and serve chilled as a refreshing dessert.

Notes

  • Use full-fat coconut milk for a richer texture.
  • Ensure gelatin is fully dissolved to avoid clumps.
  • For a vegan option, replace gelatin with agar-agar powder and follow its specific setting instructions.
  • Sweeten to taste; you can adjust sugar quantity according to preference.
