Buko Pandan Salad


This recipe  is  very easy to make and  good for your throat to feel refresh from hot summer! Not only that you can make different kind of desserts in this recipe!


Buko Panda Salad is often serve in every occasions in the Philippines: fiesta, birthday party and etc. This recipe is very simple to make and quick to prepare. You can just put all the ingredients and eat it. But I prepare to put it in the refrigerator to make it cold and beat the summer heat! I do not like summer that's why this recipe is one of my favorite dessert.

In a small saucepan, bring your water to boil and pour in your uncooked mini Sago, simmer for 10 minutes.  If Sago are already cooked, pour the contents of the saucepan through a sieve to strain out the hot water.  Place your sieve and  put the Sago in cold water then completely drain and let it cool off.





 Cook your Pandan Gulaman or Jelly green as instructed in the packet directions, let it cool before cutting the jelly into bite size of cubes. Once Sago and Pandan Gulaman already been, use  a big bowl and mix all the ingredients! Finally refrigerate it! I like cold Buko Panda Salad


Tada!!! 
Our Buko Panda Salad


My grandmother is now currently in the Philippines and I asked her to buy me a pack of ice candy plastic before she comes here in Canada. Back home, ice candy was very popular in our school and I got an idea of why not put Buko Pandan Salad to Ice candy plastic so that I do not need to hold a bowl wherever I go! I cannot make Buko Pandan Ice candy for now because I have to wait for my grandmother! :( But I will try to find ice candy plastic in every Pilipino store in our area if they have it!

  3. I never saw those ice plastic things before. We use hard plastic ones, with sticks inside, but it would have to be frozen for that.

    I really want to try pandan now! I will have to get my hands on some! I see that condensed milk is a really popular ingredient in desserts from your culture.

    Excellent comments and ideas, Arlet! Make sure you reference where you got your pictures if they came from somewhere else online by stating where you got them, OK?
