Pandan Sticky Rice with Spring Peas, Coconut Milk & Toasted Sesame
Pandan smells like vanilla and fresh-cut grass had a child, and it turns out that child gets along surprisingly well with spring peas and coconut milk. The glutinous rice comes out of the pressure cooker glossy and jade-tinged, carrying the pandan's floral depth in every grain. Toasted sesame pulls it all back to earth just enough that you'll eat two bowls before you've thought about it.
Durian French Toast with Pandan Condensed Milk and Caramelized Banana
Durian custard has no business being this good inside French toast, and yet here we are. The funk mellows dramatically once the flesh gets emulsified into egg yolks and heavy cream, turning into something butterscotch-adjacent that plays off pandan's grassy vanilla notes in a way that feels almost inevitable. Sticky caramelized saba bananas and a pour of homemade pandan condensed milk finish the whole thing off, and ordinary French toast will bore you after this.
