Vietnamese Coffee Jelly

Black Coffee (Ca Phe Den)

1 cup Vietnamese Coffee

2 tsp. Vanilla Sugar (or to taste)

1 tsp. Agar Agar Powder

Coffee with Condensed Milk (Ca Phe Sua)

1 cup Vietnamese Coffee

2-3 Tbsp. Condensed Milk (or to taste)

1 tsp. Agar Agar Powder

Pandan Jelly

3 Pandan Leaves

1 1/2 cup Water

1-2 Tbsp. Sugar (or to taste)

1 tsp. Agar Agar Powder

Coconut Milk Jelly

1 cup Coconut Milk

2-3 Tbsp. Sugar (or to taste)

2 Pandan Leaves

1 tsp. Agar Agar Powder

First you will need to make the first layer, you can do it in any order you want.  I'm going to do the coffee first. 

To make Vietnamese coffee you will need a Vietnamese coffee filter.  

To make Jelly you'll need 1 cup of coffee, I'll be using this large size coffee filter instead of the regular size.  

Now let's make black coffee, add in the ground coffee and pour in hot water.  Wait for it to drip.  Once you have 1 cup, pour it in a sauce pan.  

Add in 2 tsp. Vanilla Sugar or to taste. Add 1 tsp. Agar Agar Powder. Mix well, when you see that it's evenly mixed. Remove from heat. 

Using a tablespoon so you can divide it out equally into the mold.  You you done that let the jelly set.  

Next layer is Ca Phe Sau which is Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk.  Same thing with the last step, but add in 2-3 Tbsp. Condensed Milk into the coffee.

Let it drip.  Mix well and pour into a sauce pan.  Add 1 tsp. Agar Agar Powder.  Let it simmer, when it's evenly mixed in with the coffee.  Remove from heat.

Use a tablespoon to evenly divide it into the mold.  

Remember if you don't want two layers of coffee you can just make either make ca phe sua or ca phe den.  

Moving onto the next layer.  You'll need 1 cup Coconut Milk. Add into a sauce pan.  Add in about 2-3 Tbsp. of Sugar or to taste.  

Tie 2 Pandan Leaves into a knot like this and it into the sauce pan and bring it to a simmer. Add in 1 tsp. Agar Agar.  Mix well, remove from heat.

Divide it evenly into the mold to make the coconut layer.

Last layer will be Pandan.  You need about 1 cup Pandan juice.  Chop 3 Pandan Leaves, put into a blender.  Add in 1 1/2 cup Water.  Blend and strain out the juice.

Take 1 cup, pour into a sauce pan. Add 1-2 Tbsp. Sugar or to taste. Add 1 tsp. Agar Agar Powder.  Bring to a simmer. Remove from heat.

Divide it evenly into the mold. 

Put the jelly in the fridge to set. Take it out of the mold and you should have 3-4 layers. Enjoy.
