Ingredients
For Pudding
3 cups + 1/3 cup Coconut Milk
¾ cup Sugar
⅓ cup Arrowroot
2 tablespoons Rose/Hibiscus water
½ tablespoon Coconut Oil
For Topping
Edible flowers
1 tablespoon toasted coconut
For best results, make this a day ahead. You will need time to steep the rose/hibiscus water and the pudding needs to set up in the refrigerator.
CONCENTRATED ROSE/HIBISCUS WATER
1 tablespoon organic food-grade roses
1/4 teaspoon dried hibiscus flowers
4oz room temp water
Combine and allow to steep for several hours
Strain and save extra in the refrigerator for drinking later.
DIRECTIONS
Grease a 9x9 square container with coconut oil.
In a cold saucepan, combine arrowroot with about half the coconut milk.
Whisk until you get a smooth lump-free mixture.
Ensure the contents are well combined before turning the heat on to avoid forming lumps.
Add the remaining coconut milk, sugar, and rose/hibiscus water.
Whisk to combine until smooth – no lumps.
Cook over medium-low heat for 12-15 minutes or until the sauce thickens.
Keep on a low flame stirring constantly to avoid burning or sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Let the mixture cool down slightly, then transfer to the greased container.
Store it in the refrigerator to set. Overnight is preferred.
Once set, cut into squares.
Garnish with edible flowers and toasted dried coconut.
Serve immediately.
Eat mindfully.
