Chef tips
To ensure clean, beautiful slices, firmly press the glutinous rice into the bottom of the pan with the back of a wet spoon before pouring the custard layer over it. If you can't find fresh pandan leaves, use high-quality vanilla extract instead. Serve the dessert well-chilled, topped with toasted coconut flakes for an extra crunchy texture.
