3 cups malagkit
3 1/2 cups sugar
3 coconuts
1 teaspoon salt

Boil the rice in the usual way with 3 or 4 pandan leaves. Grate the coconuts and squeeze out the milk without adding water. Extract two more times by adding one cup hot water for each extrac-tion. Boil the diluted coconut milk until it curdles with the sugar. Then add the thick coconut milk until it curdles again.
