Thai Lao Water Chestnut Dumplings

2007-08-27T04:44:00.001-07:00

These water chestnut dessert dumpling resembles tapioca pearl and but with crunch and colour. The advantage of the water chestnut dessert dumpling over tapioca pearl is that the dumplings do not thicken the dessert as stated in the Tapioca Pearl dessert.

In my video, you'll see that made a dessert drink with green Ai-Yu Jelly, cantaloupe, honeydew melon, the colourful water chestnut dessert dumplings, and fresh coconut milk.

2006-08-07T16:04:00.000-07:00

A great way to use up left over sticky rice is to make the Sticky Rice & Mango dessert.

1 cup fresh coconut milk
1/4 to 1/2 cup sugar
3 cups cooked sticky rice
1 ripe mango

In a pot, over medium heat, add coconut and sugar. Stir until sugar dissolves. Add sticky rice and stir until fresh coconut milk absorbs into sticky rice. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature. Remove skin of mango, cut into bit size pieces and discard the mango pit. Dish sticky rice on to a serving bowl or plate. Add mango slices over rice and serve.

I like to add left over black bean coconut drink to cook with the sticky rice. It gives the rice a nice purple colour and the beans add texture and protein to the dessert.

Sweet Tamarind & Seeds

2006-08-01T16:26:00.000-07:00

Sweet Tamarind may be purchased at Asian supermarkets. Take one tamarind pod and break the shell. Remove the shell and the strings. Eat the tamarind pulp but do not eat the tamarind seeds yet. Place the tamarind seeds in a pan over medium heat. Shake the seeds occasionally while toasting the seeds for five minutes. Once the seeds cool, crack the outer shell using your teeth and remove the outer shell with your hands. You must first toast the seeds or the shell will be difficult to crack. Do not eat the shell but carefully chew on the hard tamarind seed.
