Koleh-Koleh aka Green Bean Cake

This is a very traditional cake but now you can find green bean flour at the supermarket.  I find this cake needs only 3-4 ingredients but the time is very consumming....it takes me almost 2-1/2 hours to do this traditional kuih.

Ingredients:
500g green bean flour (Tepung Kacang Hijau)

250g plum sugar (gula melaka)

100g sugar

1kg coconut milk (in a packet form) ~ for the topping

500ml coconut milk (in a box form)

1000ml water (about 5 cups)

Directions:

1. In a pot, add 400ml water with plum sugar & white sugar to a boiling point.  Shift the plum sugar & put aside to cool.
2. In a big pot, add coconut milk, water, 1/2 tsp salt & the flour.  Stir the mixture together.
3. On a medium heat, keep stir the mixture & add the plum sugar.  Continuously stirring to prevent from lumpy.  Once the mixture is thicken, pour it on round pan & let it cool aside.
4. Heat a medium fire on a non-stick pan, add the 1kg coconut milk.  Stir once a while till the coconut becomes a tiny lump.  It should turn into dark brown & off the fire.  Shift the oil & spread the fried coconut on top of the green bean as a topping.
5. Let it really cool, then cut & serve.
