Hello Everyone I want to share this very special dessert from the Philippines. This is called "Halo-halo". It literally means "mix-mix" because all you have to do is to mix all the ingredients, how simple is that?
Halo-Halo Ingredients:
* 1 ripe large banana
* 2 ripe mangoes or 1 cup canned ripe mango
* 1 cup firm gelatin set into gel and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
* 1 cup canned ripe jackfruit
* 1/2 cup sweet corn or chick peas (garbanzos)
* 1 cup young shredded coconut, fresh or canned
* 1 cup cooked sweet yams or (ube halaya) glutinous purple yam, cut into 1-inch cubes
* 2 cup shaved ice
* 2 cup milk
* 4 scoops of favorite ice cream
* 1/2 cup chopped peanuts or rice krispies
Preparation Instructions:
# Peel mangoes and slice the meat into 1/2-inch cubes. Discard the seeds.
# Prepare 4 tall glasses. Divide each ingredient into 4 equal parts.
# In each glass place 1/4 of each ingredient, adding layer by layer starting with corn or chick peas, cooked sweet yams, jackfruit, bananas, coconut, and gelatin.
# Top with 1/2 cup shaved ice.
# Pour 1/4 cup milk over shaved ice and top with a scoop of ice cream.
