Pumpkin in Coconut Milk - Fug Tong Gang Buad

1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups pumpkin
1/3 cup palm sugar
1/2 cup coconut milk

Skin the pumpkin, remove the seeds and julienne into pieces of 2" x ½" x ½".





Add water and coconut milk to a pot and heat over low heat. Add salt. I would recommend adding half of the sugar and tasting before adding more. If you find it to be too sweet, add more water. Stir to dissolve the sugar. Add the pumpkin. Let it boil and let the pumpkin cook. Serve hot, warm or room temperature.


The key to this dish is using thin coconut milk. The top layer of coconut milk or cream will curdle when boiled. If your coconut milk is creamy, dilute it with water.

Luuk Chuup (Fruity Dessert)


Ingredients
150 gm mung beans, washed and soaked overnight

1 ½ cups coconut milk

1 cup sugar


For the coating:

1 tablespoon gelatin

2 cups water, with

1 drop of jasmine extract

½ cup sugar

20-30 bamboo sticks, 10cm-12.5cm long, satay sticks or long toothpicks


For preparation:

Foam base measuring 15cm x 20cm (holds 20-30 pieces of look choop) 3 small paint brushesfood colourings: red, yellow, green, and purple



Directions
Boil the mung beans until soft then drain thoroughly.

Use the same pot to mash the boiled beans with the coconut milk and sugar. Stir over low heat until thoroughly blended, and until dry. Set aside to cool.


For the fruit shapes, take about 2-3 teaspoons of mung beans and use your hands to shape them into the form of the fruit desired - mangoes, oranges and cherries are popular choices. Use the bamboo sticks to lift the fruit pieces and place them on the foam base.


In a pan, mix the gelatin, water (with jasmine added) and sugar. Bring to the boil over low heat. Allow about one third of the water to evaporate so the jelly thickens.


Coat the beans, paint with the food colouring so they represent the selected fruit. Leave to dry.
Once dried, dip each fruit in the jelly at least three times and leave to dry on the foam base.
Sharpen the forms with a small kitchen knife.
