Maja Blanca

Ingredients:

1 large can sweetened corn

1 can coconut milk or creme

1 can milk or cream

1/4 c corn starch

2 tsp vanilla extract

2 c Greek plain yogurt, sweetened and/or add white granulated sugar to taste

1 handful of lightly toasted coconut shavings

Instructions:

In a large mixing bowl mix in all the ingredients, except the yogurt, but before adding the starch dissolve it into some of the milk thoroughly then dilute into the whole mixture.

Pour into a med. sized stew pot gently heat and stir the mixture until thickened and add in at the end the yogurt

and pour into a jell-o ring mold and set aside to set in the fridge for 2-5 hrs. at 5 deg C.

Serving Suggestion: Turn over the ring mold onto wax paper and slice 2 1/2" portions and lay on its side on a saucer and sprinkle with previously lightly roasted coconut shavings from the oven (add brown sugar, optional).

COOKING TIPS BY THE TIME DINNER COMES ROUND WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS:

#1

Keep it simple. Note and go through each step of the cooking process from prep time (including arranging ingredients), utensils, including pots and pans, preheat the oven and set timer for cooking time, after let set aside to cool down according to instructions; serve also in the manner for presentation as recommended by the recipe-maker.

#2

Check for doneness with cooking time: e. g. for roasts, use a roasting thermometer, a toothpick for breads, puddings and cakes; note the need to pre-coat the sheet pans for baking with shortening/oil. For pasta and vegetables follow carefully instructions to be al dente adding enough water, gentle boiling with salt added and tasting regularly the bite, followed by draining and washing several times.

#3

As a rule we prepare and present foods readily using only the implements and serving dishes and/or pans that allow for this to avoid any extra artistry thru decorative needs as is limited, involved with the dish. Alternatively follow according to script the illustrated suggestion on the packaging.
