Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

Gather all the necessary ingredients to ensure a smooth cooking process. You will need:

• 10-12 grams of agar-agar
• 3 1/2 cups of water
• 1 egg
• 1 cup of thick coconut milk (santan pekat)
• 1 block of gula Melaka (palm sugar)
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt

Tips

• Make sure the agar-agar is of good quality for the best results.
• Gula Melaka can be substituted with regular sugar if necessary, but the flavor will change.

Step 2: Mix Egg and Coconut Milk

1. In a mixing bowl, beat the egg until well combined.
2. Add the thick coconut milk and mix thoroughly.
3. Strain the mixture through a sieve to remove any lumps or egg whites for a smoother texture.
4. Set this mixture aside for later use.

Practical Advice

Straining the mixture helps prevent any curdling when cooking, yielding a smooth dessert.

Step 3: Cook the Agar-Agar Mixture

1. In a pot, bring the 3 1/2 cups of water to a boil.
2. Add the agar-agar and stir until it completely dissolves.
3. Incorporate the block of gula Melaka and continue stirring until it melts completely.
4. Add the salt and mix well until combined.

Common Pitfalls

• Ensure the agar-agar is fully dissolved before adding other ingredients to avoid a grainy texture.

Step 4: Combine and Cook

1. Once the agar-agar and sugar mixture is boiling, slowly pour in the strained egg and coconut milk mixture.
2. Stir continuously for about 2-3 minutes to ensure everything is well combined and to prevent curdling.

Real-World Application

Cooking the mixture for a few minutes allows the flavors to meld, creating a richer taste.

Step 5: Pour and Chill

1. Pour the combined mixture into a mold or container.
2. Allow it to cool to room temperature.
3. Place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours to set properly.

Tip

For best results, let it chill overnight for a firmer texture.
