About this dessert:
Kyauk Kyaw (which is a seaweed jelly) with a coconut milk layer on top, is also one of the most popular desserts in Burma. Agar agar, a seaweed extract, is a good vegan substitute for gelatin which comes stewed bones. Agar agar comes in several different forms, but the powder works best for me:
Ingredients:
Coconut Milk-2 cups
Water-1 1/2 cup
Sugar-1/2 cup
Agar Agar/ China Grass-16 gm
Procedure:
1. Bring water, sugar and agar agar to boil.
2. Let it boil on low flame until agar agar dissolves completely.
3. Add coconut milk and switch off flame.
4. Pour it into a 8″ square tin and leave it at room temperature to set.
5. It will set once it cools down.
6. Refrigerate it for at least 1 hour.
7. Cut into squares.
8. Remove from tin and serve chilled.
