Our attempt was to make a Santa and Christmas theme dessert, but painting has never been our strength. Result - a pirate santa, a joker star, a moose reindeer and a helicopter pressie. We hope you enjoy the recipe and have a very Merry Christmas with your loved ones. All the best to you. ^_^ Look Choop Recipe Ingredients: 150g peeled mung bean 70g sugar 130g coconut milk food colouring (red, black, yellow and green) 1/2 tbsp sugar 1 cup of waters 1 tbsp jelly powder Instructions: Step 1: Soak 150g of peeled mung beans in water for 1 hour. Step 2: Now drain the beans steam them for 15 minutes Step 3: You will know the beans are cooked when they are soft. Now let them cool for a moment, and place them in a food mixer along with the 130g of coconut milk. Blend until the beans take on a texture a bit like mashed potato. Step 4: Place the mashed means into a saucepan and heat on a low heat for 10 minutes without cooking oil. This will dry out the mixture and make it stickier. Step 5: Knead the beans for about 5 minutes until it is thick like this. Step 6: Now shape the dough into whatever you want, we followed a christmas theme however usually people shape the dough into fruits. You can use a cocktail stick or skewer to apply finer details to the shape. Once you are done place the shape on a skewer or cocktail stick and use the food colouring and paint brushes to paint on whatever colours you need. Step 7: Now we need to make the jelly coating. Add 1 cup of water, 1/2 tbsp of sugar, and 1 tbsp of jelly powder to a saucepan and heat until the sugar and jelly powder has dissolved in the water. Step 8: Whilst the coating is still hot, pour it over the shapes you made from the beans until they are coated thoroughly. Step 9: The jelly should set very quickly. Once it has set, you can eat!
