45 minutes · Serves 4

Ingredients for Coco Jam

  • 400 g palm sugar
  • 400 ml coconut milk
  • 2 pandan leaves, loosely tied

How to cook Coco Jam

  1. 1.Combine palm sugar, coconut milk, and pandan leaves in a saucepan over low heat.
  2. 2.Stir occasionally until the sugar melts completely, then raise heat to medium and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
  3. 3.Reduce to medium-low and stir constantly as it simmers, scraping the base so the mixture thickens evenly.
  4. 4.Cook until syrupy like maple syrup; it should coat a spoon but remain slightly loose because it thickens as it cools.
  5. 5.Remove from heat, discard pandan, and cool completely in a clean covered glass container before refrigerating.
