Shaved ice layered with fruit, jellies and ube.
Ingredients
Measure and prepare everything before you begin cooking.
- 4 cups shaved ice
- evaporated milk
- sweetened beans
- nata de coco
- jackfruit
- ube halaya
- ice cream
Instructions
- 1
Measure every ingredient before starting. Prepare the tin, steamer or serving glasses and bring chilled ingredients to the temperature specified in the next step.
- 2
Drain all bottled fruits, beans and jellies well. Divide them evenly among chilled tall glasses, placing heavier ingredients at the bottom.
- 3
Shave the ice finely just before serving. Pack it gently over the fillings, then pour ¼–⅓ cup evaporated milk around the ice in each glass.
- 4
Check the texture before removing from the heat: baked or steamed desserts should be just set, while jams and caramel mixtures should coat the spoon without tasting burnt.
- 5
Top with ube halaya and ice cream. Serve immediately with a long spoon and mix thoroughly before eating.
- 6
Allow the dessert to cool as directed before slicing or serving. Add toppings only after cooling unless the method says to brown them in the oven.
