Voiceover. Set out a scale and the equipment for Ice kachang. Heat to the refrigerator at 40°F / 4°C and give it 5 minutes so the surface is actually hot. Weigh ice, palm sugar, sweetened condensed milk, dry mung beans, agar powder, sweet corn, kosher salt, neutral oil. Ice kachang is cooked in Dessert as its own plate, not as a copy of a restaurant menu. Shave ice over cooked mung beans, corn, and a soft agar jelly, and pour palm sugar and condensed milk over the top. Amounts are for 4 from foods this library can count.

If it goes wrong
Shot. Split screen is unnecessary. Show the finished, correct texture, then a hand points at the cue.
Voiceover. Ice kachang looks done at the edge and is still raw in the center. Trust the cue, not the color. Check the thickest piece and give it a few more minutes. Ice kachang turned out salty, dry, or watery. Weigh the salt and the liquid next time. Keep the heat at the temperature in the method, and stop when the doneness cue appears.
