How to cook maja:

  • In a large casserole put all Maja Blanca ingredients. Simmer over low fire for about 15 minutes.
  • Pour into serving dishes and cool.
  • Heat the thick coconut milk over medium heat.
  • When it starts to boil lower the heat and cook for about 25 minutes stirring constantly.
  • Strain excess oil. Sprinkle over cooled Maja Blanca. Makes 12 portions

Note:

  • To make the maja more flavorful, the addition of milk powder was implemented. Believe me this is tastier than the ordinary maja blanca I've tried.
