Instructions

Fruit layer

  1. Combine agar agar powder with water (fruit layer ingredients), stirring continuously. Allow this mixture to rest for 15 minutes.
  2. As your agar mixture rests, take this time to evenly slice your fruits into small pieces.
  3. In a small pot over low heat, add the rested agar-water mixture. Keep stirring until the agar fully dissolves. Then, add sugar, whisking or stirring until completely melted. Then, pour a thin layer into your mold.
  4. Place some fruit slices in the mold, distributed evenly. Pour in half of the agar mixture. Layer in more fruit, followed by the remaining agar mixture. Top off with the last fruit. Leave to set at room temperature. Make sure you do this at a quick pace.

Coconut layer

  1. Mix the agar agar powder with water (coconut layer ingredients) while stirring continuously. Let it rest for 15 minutes. During this time, the fruit layer will set.
  2. After 15 minutes, add coconut milk to a saucepan over low heat. Stir in the rested agar-water mixture, and ensure the agar dissolves fully. Add sugar, pandan, and salt, whisking or stirring until sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Check if the fruit layer has set and become firm by gently touching it, then gently pour the hot coconut layer on top. Let the dessert set at room temperature for 20 minutes or until firm, and then place it in the refrigerator for several hours. Serve chilled and unmold right before serving.

Notes

  • Use the nutrition card in this recipe as a guideline.
  • Avoid unmolding your agar jelly dessert too far in advance before serving. Unmolding it might release some water, for the best results, unmold just before serving.
  • Before storing, let your agar jelly dessert come to room temperature. Then, transfer it to an airtight container or cover with cling film and store in the refrigerator. The dessert will stay fresh for up to 3–5 days, but it probably won't last that long! Avoid freezing.
