The MAJA BLANCA (White Pudding) Recipe Serves 8-10

Ingredients:

1/2 cup cornstarch

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup sugar

2 cups diluted coconut milk

1 cup toasted sweetened coconut flakes topping

Method:

Lightly grease a square or round pan with vegetable oil. Set aside. Prepare topping.

In a non-stick pan over medium heat, bring to a gentle boil the coconut milk and sugar until well blended. In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup cornstarch with 1/2 cup water. Stir until smooth. 

Slowly add this mixture to the boiling milk mixture, stirring fast until thickened (2-4 minutes) and fully cooked. Transfer into the prepared pan and let cool until

firmly set. 

Slice diagonally into serving pieces. Sprinkle toasted coconut topping on maja just before eating to retain topping crunchiness.
