Es Cendol (Es Dawet) // Cold pandan dessert with coconut milk and sugar topped with Jackfruit - Masak Bareng

The dessert's basic ingredients consist of coconut milk, starch noodles with green food coloring (usually sourced from the pandan leaf), and palm sugar. Red beans, glutinous rice, grass jelly, creamed corn, and shaved ice are optional additions. Cendol has become a quintessential part of cuisine among the multi-racial population in Southeast Asia and is often sold by vendors at roadsides, hawker centres and food courts.

Cendol vendors are a common sight in Indonesian cities. In the Javanese language, cendol refers to the jelly-like part of the beverage, while the combination of cendol, palm sugar and coconut milk is called dawet. (Wikipedia)

"Masak Bareng" event this time refer to the cold drinks on Ramadan (Fasting Mont or Holly Month for Muslim), it is very common to serve sweet dessert or drinks for break the fast and there are lots more dessert vendors we could find, during this time of the month (only).

I used my big pasta strainer to make this because i don't have that special strainer for Cendol, tiring but worthed... and my Hubby plus Daugher love it!
