Cooking Tips

• Make sure to stir the pudding occasionally while simmering to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
• If the pudding becomes too thick after refrigeration, you can add a little more coconut milk or water to adjust the consistency.
• For a richer flavor, you can use full-fat coconut milk instead of light coconut milk.

Storage and Serving

• Store the leftover pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Before serving, give the pudding a good stir to redistribute any separation that may have occurred.
• You can enjoy the pudding as is or serve it with fresh fruits, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for added indulgence.
