Process
- Clean mung bean in 2 – 3 times. Soak in cold water about 1 – 2 hours. Next, wash again carefully. Pour them into pot, add more water and bring to cook with small heat. Sometime, use spoon to stir well to make sure mung bean will not be burnt on the bottom. My tip: pour water is equal the surface of mung bean.
- When mung bean is soft, add more sugar, use spoon to stir well. Turn off the heat, wait to reduce heat, and bring it to grind well. Then, add mung bean into pot, do not stop stirring when cooking. Cook more 5 – 10 minutes and turn off the heat. This mung bean mixture is required not too thick.
- Making milk jelly: add soft jelly flour into pot, add more water and use spoon to stir well until jelly flour is melted. Wait in 15 minutes. Bring to cook with small heat; do not stop stirring when cooking. Cook until it starts boiling, add more condensed milk into pot.
- Cook with small heat until jelly flour is melted, turn off the heat. Scoop into big bowl, wait to reduce heat and put in fridge.
- After that, cut it into small cubes.
- Peel off the cover of roasted peanut, smash quickly.
- Making coconut syrup: add coconut milk into pot, add more corn starch, sugar, salt and cook with small heat until this mixture starts boiling and becomes thick. Turn off the heat and wait to reduce heat.
