Es Teler

A popular Indonesian dessert drink of avocado, coconut flesh, jackfruit, and sweetened condensed milk over shaved ice.

Ingredients

• 600g tempeh
• 2 cups compressed rice cakes (lontong)
• 2 tsp sliced shallots
• 2 tsp palm sugar
• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 200g bean sprouts
• a handful of fresh Thai basil, chopped
• kecap manis (sweet soy sauce), to taste

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven (or set up your steamer or frying station) and lightly grease your pan or molds with coconut oil.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, whisk together the rice noodles and tamarind paste until evenly combined.

3. 3

   In a separate bowl, blend the crispy fried shallots with the chicken stock until smooth and well incorporated.

4. 4

   Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, taking care not to overmix.

5. 5

   Transfer everything to your prepared pan or molds and cook — bake, steam, chill, or fry — until set, about 0 mins.

6. 6

   Remove from the heat and let it cool completely; this helps the texture firm up perfectly.
