Te Kabubu

Ingredients

• 2 cups dried pandanus flour (or toasted flour as substitute)
• 1 cup grated fresh coconut
• 1/4 cup sugar (optional, for sweetness)
• 1/4 cup water
• Pinch of salt

Instructions

1. 1If starting from fresh pandanus, extract and dry the pandanus pulp, then grind it into a fine flour; otherwise use pre-made pandanus flour.
2. 2Toast the pandanus flour lightly in a dry pan until fragrant, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
3. 3Toast the grated coconut separately in a dry pan until lightly golden.
4. 4Combine the toasted pandanus flour and toasted coconut in a bowl with a pinch of salt and sugar if using.
5. 5Gradually add water, mixing by hand until the mixture comes together into a firm, slightly crumbly paste.
6. 6Press the mixture firmly into a shallow dish or mold to compact it.
7. 7Let it rest and firm up for about 10-15 minutes.
8. 8Cut into small squares or bars and serve as a traditional sweet snack.
