Yummy Desserts: ABC and cendol in James Cendol, Sitiawan, Malaysia
Hi dear Steemians! Today, I went to a famous dessert stall in Malaysia called James Cendol. It is located in Sitiawan, Perak, Malaysia. I went there to have two of the most famous desserts in Malaysia. The dessert above is commonly known as ABC (Air Batu Campur). It means Mixed Ice in English. It is also known as Ais Kacang (Bean Ice).
ABC is made of mainly shaved ice and red beans. There are many variants of ABC and no matter what it is, they generally look bright in eye catching colours. In the picture above, the thin, green ingredient is rice flour jelly. The yellow ingredient is corn. It has a red tint to it because the creative seller drizzled some red rose syrup. Other interesting variants of ABC are the ones with a scoop of ice cream on top, a drizzle of peanuts and a topping of nata-de-coco jelly.
The picture above is cendol (pronounced chen-dol). Many people visit James Cendol to try out their signature dish, cendol.
Cendol is generally made of coconut milk, rice flour jelly, red beans, shaved ice and palm sugar. The cendol I had today was yummy and I felt good eating it in the hot, humid weather of my beloved tropical country.
