Vegan Coconut Jelly / Burmese Kyauk Kyaw

Pronounced as Chow Chaw, this is a Burmese dessert with agar agar/ china grass and coconut milk. I know Chumkie from the Quilters group- Desi Quilters. She is a wonderful quilter and when browsing through her collection of quilts, I was awestruck. And last week I came across her kitchen blog with  a wonderful collection of recipes. She has a lot of Burmese recipes and the first recipe which I wanted to try is this jelly. It looked so nice and as my daughter is a fan of jelly, I made it at once. It turned out super delicious and more than Sruti PK loved it a lot. Even I couldn’t keep my hand off this lovely dessert. It is very easy to prepare and tastes great when served chilled. Thank you Chumkie for the delicious recipe. I made this for the first day of Blogging Marathon Week 3 for the theme After School Bites for Kids. As this is very easy to make you can surprise your kids when they return home from a long day at school. They would surely enjoy this.

  1. I make this with regular milk..sometimes use juice even, but have never tried with coconut milk, though have heard a lot…ok..now that you have inspired me will surely try…n I will agree with Priya..I too love agar agar.

  2. Nicely done and yummy recipe…Gayathri, if u r from chennai, do you have any idea about where we can get agar agar or china grass… I am able to find the instant china grass from nuts and spices…
