Maja Blanca Ingredients:

1/2 cup thick coconut milk
1 cup rice flour
1 c. sugar
1/2 cup cornstarch
3 tbsp sweet corn kernel
4 cups fresh coconut milk
1/2 c. grated frozen buko (optional)

Maja Blanca Cooking Instructions:

Boil thick coconut milk in a saucepan until the oil is extracted and the precipitate forms into a dark brown color. This is called latik.
Drain the latik from the oil and set aside.
Grease a 13-inch rectangular dish with coconut oil. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, blend rice flour, sugar,sweet corn kernels, cornstarch, and fresh coconut milk. Stir in grated buko (if used).
Boil over slow heat, stirring constantly to prevent lumps, until mixture is clear for about 3-5 minutes.
Pour hot mixture into prepared dish and allow to set.
Sprinkle latik on top. Cool before slicing.

Filipino Recipes Portal Tip: When rice flour is not available, soak 2 cups rice in 2 cups water overnight. Put through blender and process until smooth.

Hello! Thanks for this recipe but i want to ask if i can use coconut powder instead of fresh coconuts because they are not readily available here in Kuwait,will it affect the taste of the maja blanca? thanks a lot!
