Step 1: Prepare the base

Pour 700 ml of coconut water into a saucepan.

Step 2: Add dry ingredients

Add 3 teaspoons of gelatin powder (or agar-agar powder) and 3 teaspoons of sugar to the coconut water.

Step 3: Mix and dissolve

Mix the ingredients very well with a spoon until the gelatin and sugar are dissolved.

Step 4: Boil the mixture

Place the saucepan on medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally, until it is bubbling vigorously.

Step 5: Cool the mixture

Transfer the hot mixture into a clean bowl and let it cool down completely to room temperature.

Step 6: Add coconut slices

Once cooled, add the young coconut slices to the mixture, distributing them evenly.

Step 7: Chill the pudding

Place the bowl in the refrigerator and chill for 4 hours until the pudding is set and firm.

Step 8: Serve

Once set, carefully loosen the edges with a knife and invert the pudding onto a serving plate. Garnish with mint leaves if desired, slice, and serve.

• Ensure gelatin/agar-agar is fully dissolved before boiling.

• Adjust sugar to your taste preference.

• For best results, chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.

• Use different fruit slices like mango or lychee for added flavor.

• Add a few drops of coconut extract for a stronger coconut flavor.
