Method:-
Prepare Coconut Milk – MBT - DCM Coconut Milk Powder 50g with 30g water, shake and leave on countertop for up to 2 hours or in the fridge overnight before use.
Mix Oil with flour & 1 pkt MBT- DCM Coconut Milk Powder 25g (Optional) and stir with a whisk until smooth.
Add in the Coconut milk (Item 1) and Pandan powder & Pandan Liquid extract and stir to combine. At this stage, the batter will become thick and lumpy.
Add in egg yolks and whisk with a hand whisk until the batter is smooth and runny again. Set aside.
Beat the egg whites until foamy then gradually add sugar, beat until firm peaks form.
Add 1/3 of the meringue into the yolk batter and use the hand whisk to mix until combined. Add the next 1/3 portion and whisk again. Finally, add the last portion, and whisk again. Then use a spatula to scoop the batter from the bottom and fold on to the batter to make sure all are combined and no more yolk batter can be seen. Be gentle and do not over-mix.
Pour into prepared pan and bake in the water bath at 190C for 15 minutes before lowering to 145C for another hour or until the cake bounces back when you lightly press the top.
Remove from oven and leave it for a couple of minutes before unmoulding
Frost & decorate with fresh shredded coconut (I steamed the fresh coconut with salt for 5 minutes used at room temperature.
