Bubur Kacang Hijau- Malaysian Sweet Green Bean Soup
- 200 grams Mung beans (Green Beans)
- 3 Pandan leaves
- 1 as much (to taste) Palm sugar or brown sugar
- 1 as much (to taste) Caster sugar
- 1 pinch Salt
- 200 ml Coconut milk
- This is a pandan tree (called screw pine in English).
- If you can get dried leaves, use them; otherwise, you can make your own.
- If you can get fresh pandan leaves, wash them well, then tie them in a knot.
- If they are dehydrated, use them as is.
- Rinse the mung beans and place them in a pot with water.
- Bring to a boil, then drain (to remove the scum).
- Return the beans to the pot and add the pandan leaves.
- Fill the pot with plenty of water and boil until the beans are tender.
- I use a pressure cooker for this step.
- Once the beans are tender, remove the pandan leaves.
- Then add the palm sugar, white sugar, and salt to taste.
- Add the coconut milk and mix well.
- When it comes to a boil, it's done.
- Mung beans have a cooling effect on the body.
- Using cold soup to cool off is a good way to save energy!
- For reference, this is the proportion of ingredients that I use to make this: 300 g mung beans, 250 g caster sugar, 50 g brown sugar, and 200 ml coconut milk.
- It's a bit on the sweet side.
