This was served at Alexander's Birthday Party. I have made so many kuihs and they were all so rich with coconut milk, so i decided to make this agar agar using gula melaka and condensed milk. I think i should have posted a disclaimer for the guests, that i will not be responsible for any health issues as all the food served are not healthy. Well, how often do the guests get pampered with all the kuih muihs served?
Ingredients:
Ingredients:
The brown layer:
3 tbsp agar agar powder
1200 ml water
225 g /8 oz gula melaka
1200 ml water
225 g /8 oz gula melaka
1/2 cup sugar
The Milk Layer:
1 tbsp agar agar powder
600 ml water
1/2 cup condensed milk
Method:
Cook the milk layer by putting 600 ml water in a saucepan and turn on the heat, then whisk in agar agar.
Cook until agar agar is dissolved, then add in the condensed milk.
Pour into a cake pan to cool.
Put in the fridge to set. when it is set, remove and cut into shreds.
While the milk layer is in the fridge, cook the brown layer by boiling all the ingredients together until dissolved.
Pass through a fine sieve.
To assemble:
Put the shredded milk layer into a fancy mould, then pour in the warm brown layer.
Leave to cool before putting into the fridge to set.
When set, unmould and serve.
Serves

Hi Auntie Lily,
I made the Agar Agar Batik last sunday and brought a container of it to work the next day. The agar agar "disappeared" in less than 10 minutes!
I also gave a container of the agar agar to my husband to bring to his office. His colleagues loved the agar agar. Even his boss (who rarely snacks) ate a piece and liked it.
I was concerned that the inclusion of gula melaka would make the agar agar too sweet. However, that was not the case. In fact, one of my colleagues even commented that the agar agar tastes like chin chow.
Thank you so much for the lovely recipes in your blog. I enjoy going through the recipes in your blog and trying them out.
Take care.
Cheers,
Pebbles
