Resumo para quem tem pressa

"A timeless classic for holiday parties and family lunches, this manjar branco combines the unctuous creaminess of coconut milk thickened on the stove with the classic acidic and sweet plum syrup topping. It is worth making for the ease of the no-bake dessert that unmolds with a glossy perfection."

Chef Tips

- Cozinhe o creme por pelo menos 3 a 5 minutos após levantar fervura para eliminar qualquer resíduo de gosto de amido cru - Aguarde o creme esfriar totalmente em temperatura ambiente antes de transferir para a geladeira para não formar água de condensação - Desenforme o manjar apenas gelado após as 4 horas mínimas, passando a ponta dos dedos umedecidos para descolar a borda

Variations

- Adicione meia xícara de coco ralado seco ou fresco à massa na panela para trazer textura mastigável ao corte - Acrescente uma colher de sopa de água de flor de laranjeira ao creme ainda quente para conferir aroma floral árabe - Sirva em taças individuais dispensando o desenforme e cobrindo cada porção com uma ameixa e calda morna

Substitutions

- O leite de coco tradicional de garrafa pode ser substituído por leite de coco fresco caseiro batido e coado - O açúcar refinado pode ser substituído por açúcar demerara triturado ou açúcar cristal na mesma proporção - A clássica calda de ameixas pretas pode ser trocada por calda caseira de frutas vermelhas ou goiabada derretida

How to Store

Keep the unmolded manjar on a platter covered with plastic wrap in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Keep the plum syrup in a separate container and drizzle only the slices at the time of serving so as not to stain the white.

Can You Freeze It?

It is not recommended to freeze coconut manjar, as the cornstarch undergoes syneresis upon thawing, releasing a large amount of water and leaving the texture spongy. Keep the dessert only under regular refrigeration.

What to Serve With

Pairs perfectly with warm black plum sauce, fresh apricot sauce, or sweet Port wine. It also makes an excellent pair with strong brewed coffee without sugar to balance the sweet profile of the coconut.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did the coconut manjar break when unmolding?

This happens if it is unmolded while still warm or if the mold was not moistened with ice water before pouring the hot cream.

How to avoid cornstarch lumps in the manjar?

Completely dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water before mixing it with the coconut milk and whisk vigorously with a wire whisk in the pan.

Can I make the plum syrup with the dried plums themselves?

Yes, boil 150g of pitted prunes with 1 cup of water and half a cup of sugar for 10 minutes until a shiny syrup forms.

Can I use a silicone pan to make the manjar?

Yes, moistened silicone molds make it much easier to unmold, just pull the tabs slightly before turning onto the plate.
