Pandan


I absolutely love the smell of pandan. It makes such a difference to so many Malaysian dishes and desserts. Almost a staple. So, I got my hands on some over the weekend and decided right away that I'd want to make a pandan coconut loaf for the office on Monday.

Extracting the pandan juice from the leaves were easy. As I was extracting, it brought back familiar smells of childhood, when my mum made coconut agar-agar for our birthdays. That.... just so comforting.

The cake turned out nice and moist. Personally I preferred it without the dessicated coconut topping. Just the cake on its own is good enough for me.
