how to make cendol
  1. Mix rice flour and sago flour, then mix it with some of the water.
  2. Boil the rest of the water, add green pandan leaves water and salt.
  3. Put the flour mixtures into the boiled water.
  4. Stir well and cook until it thickens (paste-like).
  5. Drain with special cendol strain (usually the strainer has round holes), so when we press the cendol mixture it will go out of the strain as roundish short cendol.
  6. Put these cendol directly into a bowl with water and ice in it.
  7. Cendol will be solid and then drain them again. Set aside.
