A cold dessert – soup, Chendul or Cendol is another quirky Malaysian street food that is surprisingly delicious. Chendul resembles a noodle like greenish jelly squiggle that's made from mung-bean flour. The green colour is achieved by staining the Chendul with pandan leaves, a tropical plant which exudes a vanilla-like flavour. These noodle-like strips, together with red beans are added to a soup of coconut cream and palm sugar. The 'soup' is poured over a lump of ice, to which a liberal dose of milkmaid is added. Yup! It's one for the sweet-tooth and a pretty 'feel-good' type of dish one should try, throwing all precaution and resolves of a diet out the window.
