- Flesh of 3 coconuts, peeled and coarsely chopped
- 250g long grain rice
- 150g sugar
- Ground cinnamon, for sprinkling
Recipe
- Put the coconut flesh and 250ml water into a blender and process.
- Pour the mixture into a sieve set over a bowl and press out as much liquid as possible. Pour the contents of the sieve into a second bowl, add 500ml water and repeat. Set aside to strain.
- In a bowl, combine the rice with just enough water to cover, and mix. Let soak for at least 4 hours.
- Transfer the rice and water mixture to a blender and process to a smooth, thick mixture.
- Strain the processed rice into the coconut milk, stir, and strain into a pan through a fine sieve.
- Add the sugar and heat gently to dissolve the sugar completely. The mixture should have a consistency like thick cream.
