Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 200 g / 0.44 lb durian ((or to preference))
- 1/4 US cup milk ((or to preference))
- 100 g / 0.22 lb ice ((or to preference))
- 4 tbsp condensed milk ((or to preference))
Instructions
- 1
Use a large knife like a cleaver to make deep incisions starting from the center. Do so where you notice a bulge when looking from the base. The bulge is where the durian pieces are, so you want to cut where you can open that part up.
- 2
Cut deeply enough to break through the thick husk. This will roughly be 2cm (0.8") deep. You'll end up with a star with about 7 points.
- 3
Follow one of the star's points and run the knife along the durian's length, cutting through the husk until you reach the stem.
- 4
Use your hands to open the cut enough to scoop the pieces out, then repeat for all the other points in the star until every piece has been removed.
- 5
Put all the ingredients in a blender and blitz everything until it's blended to your liking.
- 6
Serve cold as is!
