Es Dawet is a cooling Indonesian dessert drink with soft green rice-flour jelly, silky coconut milk, and deep caramel notes from palm sugar. This quick version keeps the flavors authentic while making the technique simple and approachable for home cooks.

Klepon are soft, chewy pandan-scented rice balls filled with molten palm sugar and rolled in lightly salted coconut. The contrast of fragrant dough, warm caramel-like centre, and fresh coconut makes them irresistibly comforting.

Bubur Ketan Hitam is a comforting black glutinous rice pudding with a deep, nutty flavor and gentle sweetness from palm sugar. Finished with warm, lightly salted thick coconut milk, it is creamy, fragrant, and beautifully balanced between rich and refreshing.
