Description

A delicate, barely-set coconut jelly that wobbles on the plate, topped with a vibrant passion fruit glaze that shatters with each tap of the spoon. This dessert is light, refreshing, and barely contained—a playful treat that melts on the tongue.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp agar-agar powder
  • 1/2 cup passion fruit pulp (fresh or bottled)
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp lime zest
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. In a saucepan, combine coconut milk, sugar, agar-agar, and salt. Whisk well and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly for 3-4 minutes until sugar dissolves and agar-agar is fully incorporated.
  2. Remove from heat and pour the mixture into individual serving glasses or a shallow dish. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set but still wobbly.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine passion fruit pulp, honey, and lime zest. Simmer over low heat for 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Let cool completely.
  4. To serve, gently tap the set coconut jelly with a spoon to create a slight shatter effect on the surface. Drizzle with passion fruit glaze and garnish with fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately.
