Here's Idol sa Kusina Recipe for Episode 117/Nov. 17, 2013-  MAJA BLANCA.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1/2 cup water
• 1/2 cup cornstarch
• 1 cup coconut milk 
• 3/4 cup water
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1/4 cup fresh sweet corn kernels
• 1/4 cup sweetened flaked cococnut

PROCEDURE:

1. Butter a baking dish or pie pan, and set aside. Mix 1/2 cup of water with the cornstarch in a bowl, and stir until smooth.

2. Combine the coconut milk, 3/4 cup of water and sugar in a saucepan over low heat, and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil, add the corn kernels, and then stir in the cornstarch mixture, stirring quickly to avoid lumps as it becomes very thick. Bring the mixture back to a boil, and simmer until fully thickened and smooth, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes.

3. Pour the maja blanca into the prepared dish, and set aside to cool until firm., about 2 hours.

4. Place the coconut flakes in a dry skillet over medium heat and stir to toast. Watch them carefully so they don't burn.

5. Remove the toasted coconut flakes to a bowl, let cool, and sprinkle over the pudding before serving.
