Ingredients
- 2 Young Coconuts
Coconut Milk Jelly
- 250 mL Coconut Water
- 200 mL Coconut Milk
- 200 mL Milk
- 10 g Condensed Milk
- 1 packet + ¼ tsp Gelatin Powder with 55mL cold water

Coconut Water Jelly

- ½ packet Gelatine Powder (approx 8g) with 25mL cold water

Instructions
Open the Coconut:
- Search on YouTube for tutorials on how to open a coconut. It is pretty easy, and you just need a sharp knife. Alternatively, you can use a coconut opener.
- Pour all the coconut water into a large bowl.
Coconut Milk Jelly (Bottom Layer):
- In a bowl, combine gelatine powder with 55mL cold water.
- In a small pot, boil some water.
- Use the double boiler method by standing the bowl in the pot of hot water. Stir until the gelatine dissolves. Never boil gelatine, as it can become stringy.
- In a saucepan, combine coconut water, milk, coconut milk, condensed milk, sugar, and gelatine mixture. Turn on medium heat and stir constantly.
- Heat the mixture until the sugar and gelatine are fully dissolved. Remove the pot from heat immediately once you start seeing little bubbles.
- Set aside for at least 20 minutes to cool down.
- Pour the mixture through a sieve into the young coconut or desired container.
- Cover the coconut or container with plastic wrap. Put it in the fridge for at least 1.5 hours.
Coconut Water Jelly (Top Layer):
- In a bowl, combine gelatine powder with 25mL cold water.
- In a small pot, boil some water.
- Use the double boiler method by standing the bowl in the pot of hot water. Stir until the gelatine dissolves.
- In a saucepan, combine coconut water, sugar, and gelatine mixture. Turn on medium heat and stir constantly.
- Heat the mixture until the sugar and gelatine are fully dissolved. Remove the pot from heat immediately once you start seeing little bubbles.
- Set aside for at least 20 minutes to cool down.
Assemble the Jelly:
- Bring out the coconuts from the fridge. Check if the bottom layer is solidified.
- Slowly pour the coconut water jelly mixture through a sieve into the coconuts. Pour in small batches to avoid breaking the bottom layer.
- Cover with plastic wrap and put in the fridge overnight.
