Ginataang Mais

Ginataang mais is a simple yet tasty snack or merienda.

It is like a maja mais but liquidy, or like congee or rice porridge that is sweet and can be served as a dessert either hot or straight from the fridge.

Ginataang mais is made with glutinous rice and canned cream style corn, cooked in coconut cream.

It is so easy to prepare, I just boiled the coconut milk, then added the glutinous rice, corn, sugar and coconut cream.

I added the evaporated milk in the end to make it extra rich and creamy, and also to make it a little thick instead of runny.

Lastly, I top it off with corn flakes as a final touch.

• 15 cups Water
