Coconut Tapioca Pudding

By: Jennifer 
"I have always loved tapioca pudding and coconut, so this dish is perfect for me! One time, for a 'Southeast Asian Cuisine Night,' I served this as dessert alongside pho, spring rolls, and steamed dumplings. For a Southeast Asian touch, top the pudding with chopped mango or chopped peanuts."

Original Recipe Yield 1 quart
 

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup quick cooking pearl tapioca
  • 2 (14 ounce) cans coconut milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Bring the tapioca, coconut milk, and salt to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the sugar until dissolved.
  2. Beat the egg in a bowl until smooth. Whisk in about 1/2 cup of the hot tapioca mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time, then scrape the egg mixture into the simmering pudding, and stir. Simmer gently until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes , then remove from the heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes before stirring in the vanilla extract. Serve either warm or chilled.
