HALO-HALO- from filipino word "halo" means "mix" is a favorite Filipino dessert or snack. It is basically a mixture of sweet preserved beans (red beans, chick peas), sweet palm-fruit, jackfruit, pounded dried rice, sweet yam (ube), cream flan (leche flan), shreds of sweetened plantain (saba), filled with crushed ice, evaporated milk and topped with ice cream.
The Halo-halo basically is sweet, creamy, and a filling dessert.
This Filipino concoction is quite popular during the hot summer months specially in Philippines, just as ice cream is. It is usually served in tall, clear glasses that show its colorful contents that tempt one's taste buds. One's thirst is even made worse by the perspiring ice-filled glass, and the melting ice cream on top. INGREDIENTS:
1 tablespoon sweetened (jackfruit)
1 tablespoon sweetened (jackfruit)
1 tablespoon sweet palm-fruit(a variety of coconut meat sold in bottles)
1 tablespoon sweetened kidney beans
1 tablespoon sweetened garbanzos
1 tablespoon sweetened plantains(ripe banana)
1 tablespoon (ube) or yam
1 tablespoon custard or creme caramel
1 tablespoon sweetened corn kernel
