  • 1-1/2 c. granulated sugar)
  • 1 tbsp agar-agar powder
  • 1 small can (14 oz.) of coconut milk,
  • DO NOT GET THE ONE THAT SAYS “GATA.”

Jelly:

Place the water in a saucepan with the sugar, sprinkle over the agar agar powder or flakes and stir them in.
Bring the water to the boil, then reduce to a strong simmer for 5 minutes until the sugar and agar agar have dissolved.

Meanwhile in separate saucepan, on median-low heat, cook coconut milk, stirring occasionally.

When done, Slowly Pour Jelly mixture into mold pan, preferably a 9 x 13 inch cake pan
Immediately, but gently pour in the warmed coconut milk.
Let sit until completely cooled. normally about 6 hours.
Warning: Do not refrigerate or cover until completely cooled

Tip: I normally make this dessert a couple of hours before I go to bed. It makes the wait time easier to endure. Then when I wake up in the morning, I pop it in the fridge and about an hour later, it’s ready to be eaten.

      I totally dig agave and LOVE all the fun you can have with it. This sounds amazing. I have tried something similar using banana ‘coins’ in the agar bottom layer.
      Thanks for the recipe, I plan on giving it a try as soon as I get home from holiday!
