Allergens

None

Ingredients

• 3 cups full fat coconut milk 1/2 cup erythritol 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin 4 large egg yolks 3 tablespoons lime zest 2 teaspoons lime juice

Instructions

1. In a saucepan, combine the coconut milk and erythritol. Warm the mixture over low heat until the erythritol is fully dissolved.
2. Sprinkle gelatin into a small amount of cold water to bloom.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Gradually add a portion of the warm coconut milk mixture into the egg yolks, constantly stirring to avoid curdling.
4. Pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan and continue cooking over low heat until the custard thickens slightly.
5. Remove from heat and whisk in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved. Stir in the lime zest and juice.
6. Pour the mixture into individual serving dishes or a single large dish, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.

Chef’s Insight

This dessert is not only keto-friendly but also a delightful way to enjoy the flavors of Thailand without stepping out of your kitchen.

Notes

Adjust the consistency of the custard by increasing or decreasing the amount of gelatin used. For a firmer set, use more gelatin; for a softer set, less.
