Papaya with coconut jelly 木瓜椰奶凍


Today I bought a very nice but expensive Papaya. It's $7.99/lb. This dessert need to make ahead but it is easy to make. I simply follow the instructions in YouTube video and Voila! I used a can of coconut milk which is about 400ml, I add a bit more gelatine to make sure it will stay it's shape after it was set.  I used 10g (1 and an half pack of gelatine envelop). 

Ingredients:
1 papaya (I use 2 papayas which is 2 lb each) 350g coconut milk (1 can of coconut milk ~400ml) 8g gelatine (10g ~ 1 1/2 envelop of gelatine) 40g white sugar

  1. Heat the coconut milk until you see some bubbles at the edge. Pour sugar and gelatine to it. Use a whisker to whisk until sugar and gelatine fully dissolved. Set aside until it cool off a bit.
  2. Take the papaya out and peel the skin using a peeler. Place it in a container or bowl in upright position. Then cut out the top part and use a spoon to scoop all the seeds out. 
  3. While the coconut milk mixture cool off a bit. Pour it into the papaya.
  4. Cover the whole papaya with cling wrap and place in refrigerator for at least 3 hours. Or until the coconut milk jelly is set.
  5. Then bring it out and cut in half. (Like the picture below)



          6. Then cut it in half again. Slice them and serve cold.
