Buko Pandan Salad

ingredients:

8 leaves of Pandan – (well washed and cleaned)
5 Buko - Grated to strips
Water - approx. 10 cups
3 small cans of cream
1 medium can of condensed milk
2 bars of gulaman
1 3/4 cups sugar (you can add more)
1 cup mais or kaong (optional)

How To Make Buko Pandan Salad - Preparation Instructions:

1). Boil water together with 8 pandan leaves that are individually twisted to break the fibers and expose the juice. Simmer for 20 minutes.
2). Before adding 2 bars of gulaman, make sure you remove the pandan leaves and check if the remaining water is equal to 8 cups – 1 bar of gulaman is good for 4 cups of liquid. If it is not 8 cups, less will mean hard gulaman and more than 8 cups will result in mushy soft gulaman.
3). Ensuring gulaman is well-dissolved stir well.
4). Add sugar while mixing. Do this for 5 minutes.
5). Pour through a strainer into cooling trays. Wait till it cools and hardens, then put in fridge.
6). Meanwhile, mix the grated buko with the 3 cans of cream and 1 can of condensed milk.
7). Add the kaong (optional).
8). Get gulaman and cut it into 1 cm cubes.
9). Mix with buko mixture.

Best served after refrigeration/cold.
