This pandan jade recipe is actually a gelatin or jelly dessert made from agar-agar, coconut milk, sugar and pandan leaves for flavoring. This recipe is using dried agar-agar bars that you need to soak in water and boil for several minutes until all the dried agar-agar had been dissolved. This is a little tedious because you it takes a long time to dissolve all the agar-agar and you need to strain it to remove solid particles still left on the liquid. But there is a simple way of cooking this dessert by using jelly powder or gelatine powder.
