Es Teler

Mise-en-place

Ingrediënten

De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

1. 1

   Prepare the young coconut meat by shredding it into thin strips.

   Ongeveer 5 min

   Tip van de kok: For the best texture, use young coconut meat that is still soft and pliable. If using frozen, thaw it completely before shredding.

2. 2

   Halve the avocados, remove the pits, scoop out the flesh, and dice it into bite-sized pieces.

   Ongeveer 5 min

   Tip van de kok: Choose ripe but firm avocados to prevent them from becoming mushy in the drink. A slight give when gently squeezed indicates ripeness.

3. 3

   Dice the jackfruit into small, manageable pieces.

   Ongeveer 5 min

   Tip van de kok: Fresh jackfruit can be sticky; lightly oiling your knife and hands can help prevent sticking. Canned jackfruit in syrup can also be used, just drain it well.

4. 4

   In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the shredded young coconut meat, diced avocado, and diced jackfruit.

   Ongeveer 2 min

   Tip van de kok: Mix carefully to avoid bruising the delicate avocado pieces.

5. 5

   In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the condensed milk, coconut milk, and simple syrup until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

   Ongeveer 3 min

   Tip van de kok: Taste the mixture and adjust the simple syrup to achieve your desired level of sweetness. Some prefer it sweeter, others less so.

6. 6

   Divide the mixed tropical fruits evenly among four individual serving glasses.

   Ongeveer 2 min

   Tip van de kok: Use clear glasses to showcase the beautiful layers of fruit and creamy liquid.

7. 7

   Add a generous amount of crushed ice to each glass, filling it almost to the top, over the prepared fruits.

   Ongeveer 2 min

   Tip van de kok: Crushed ice melts slower and provides a more refreshing texture than whole ice cubes, ensuring the drink stays cold without becoming too diluted too quickly.

8. 8

   Slowly pour the creamy milk mixture over the ice and fruits in each glass, allowing it to seep down and coat all the ingredients.

   Ongeveer 2 min

   Tip van de kok: Pouring slowly helps to distribute the liquid evenly and prevents the ice from splashing.

9. 9

   Garnish each serving with a small, knotted piece of pandan leaf, if desired.

   Ongeveer 1 min

   Tip van de kok: Pandan leaf adds a subtle, fragrant aroma that enhances the tropical experience. While not for eating, its scent is a key element of traditional Es Teler.

10. 10

    Serve the Es Teler immediately to enjoy its refreshing chill and vibrant flavors.

    Ongeveer 1 min

    Tip van de kok: This dessert is best enjoyed fresh, as the ice will melt and dilute the flavors over time.
