    Prepare the pandan topping

    Blend the pandan leaves with 200 ml water and strain the juice. Whisk the juice with the sugar, eggs, the remaining 200 ml coconut milk, rice flour, and rice starch until smooth. Strain the mixture over the rice base.

    Ready to continue when: The mixture is smooth, strained, and covers the rice base.
