Pandan Coconut Milk Agar-Agar

To achieve the 2-layer effect, you need to use fresh thick coconut milk extracted from fresh grated coconut that is without any additives. Canned or boxed coconut milk (and some fresh coconut milk sold in market) are usually loaded with binder which will prevent the separation of water and oil, thus you won’t have 2 layers when the agar-agar has set.
