Prepare the ingredients
After buying, wash the green beans thoroughly, discarding any damaged beans (the beans that float on the water surface). Then, soak the beans for at least 30 minutes to allow them to soften.
For the cassava jelly, rinse it briefly with cold water to clean off the white powder. Next, rinse the potato flour and let it drain.
After soaking, cut the hydrated seaweed into small strips.
Tip: To save cooking time, you can soak the beans overnight to soften them. -
Cook the pudding
After the mung beans are soft, gradually add the potato flour and tapioca flour, cooking for another 10 minutes until the mung beans are fully cooked.
Next, add 500g of sugar and a pinch of salt to the pot and stir until the sugar dissolves. Continue to add the seaweed, mix well, and cook for another 2-3 minutes before adding the cassava jelly, stirring evenly.
Then, slowly pour the coconut milk into the pot while stirring constantly. Cook until the pudding boils again, then turn off the heat.
Finally, let the pudding cool to about 50-60 degrees Celsius before adding 3 tubes of vanilla and stirring well to finish.
Note: Do not add vanilla while it’s still hot, as it may make the vanilla bitter, affecting the flavor of your pudding! -
