Green Tapioca Coconut Cream Cups Recipes

Steps:

• Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a saucepan. Add 1/3 cup large tapioca pearls, partially cover and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the pearls are translucent, about 40 minutes. Stir in 3/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk, 2 tablespoons sugar and a pinch of salt until dissolved. Transfer to a bowl and add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Let cool, then cover and chill at least 2 hours. Top with diced mango and drizzle with mango nectar.

Steps:

• Make pudding:
• Bring 6 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan and add tapioca in a slow stream, stirring constantly. Gently boil, stirring frequently, 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and let stand, covered, until tapioca is translucent, about 15 minutes.
• Add 3 cups cold water to tapioca, then drain in a large sieve. Transfer tapioca to a large bowl. Add cold water to cover by 2 inches and swirl tapioca to remove excess starch. Drain tapioca in sieve and repeat rinsing. Drain tapioca again and divide among 6 serving dishes. Chill, loosely covered, 10 minutes, or until set.
• Make syrup:
• Tear pandan leaf into strips and tie strips together in a knot. Simmer pandan with sugar and remaining 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Discard pandan and pour syrup through a fine sieve into a small bowl. Cool to room temperature.
• Make coconut cream:
• Scoop out thick layer of coconut cream from top of can, reserving thin liquid in bottom. Whisk ‚ cup coconut cream until smooth, whisking in 1 to 1‚ tablespoons thin coconut liquid if necessary to get a pourable consistency. Drizzle some of syrup over tapioca and top with some coconut cream. Serve remaining syrup and cream on the side.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a large stockpot. Pour in tapioca and simmer for 25 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Remove from heat and let balls sit in water for 25 minutes.
• Return stockpot to the heat; simmer and stir for 25 minutes more. Remove from heat and let rest again until centers of the balls are no longer powder, another 25 minutes. Drain.
• Combine brown sugar and white sugar in a large bowl. Pour tapioca balls into the sugar mixture. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 15 minutes while preparing the tea.
• Process tea, coconut cream, ice, milk, and sugar together in a blender until combined.
• Scoop 1/4 cup of the tapioca into each tall glass and fill with tea. Enjoy with large straws to suck up the tapioca, or use spoons.

Steps:

• Add dry tapioca balls in a pot, and cover with water.
• Turn on medium to high heat, and wait until the water comes to a boil.
• Watch closely, so as not to let the tapioca get mushy.
• When the tapioca has become soft, drain the water from the pot and leave tapioca to cool.
• In another medium sized pot, add the coconut milk (and or cream).
• Heat, and add sugar, stirring intermittently to ensure that there are no lumps.
• Ensure that the sugar has dissolved, and then add the thickening agent (flour or cornstarch). Continue to stir while the cream begins to thicken, and is smooth.
• To make things easier, place the muffin cups in a muffin tin.
• Fill each cup with about 1" of tapioca.
• Follow by topping each with another 1" of coconut pudding.
• Set tray in the refrigerator to cool (this will also let the coconut cream further set).
• Serve when you can no longer resist staring at them!
