Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (approximately 19 oz) Canned grass jelly
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Tapioca pearls
- 1 cup Fresh mango, diced
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup Ice cubes
Instructions
1. Open the can of grass jelly and gently slide the jelly onto a cutting board. Cut the grass jelly into small cubes, around 1/2-inch in size, and set aside.
2. In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add tapioca pearls and reduce to a simmer. Cook for approximately 10-12 minutes or until the pearls become translucent and cooked through, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
3. Once the tapioca pearls are cooked, drain and rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
4. In a medium bowl, combine coconut milk and granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
5. Assemble the dessert by dividing the grass jelly cubes, cooked tapioca pearls, fresh mango, and fresh strawberries evenly among four serving bowls.
6. Pour the sweetened coconut milk over the ingredients in each bowl.
7. Add a handful of ice cubes to each bowl before serving for a refreshing chill.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful and gluten-free grass jelly dessert.
