I'm back from holiday in Thailand. Tried so much of their desserts, noodles and soup. All on the very sweet side to my taste-buds. This dessert is incomparable at all with Thais sweet desserts. I cooked this before going on holiday. Now I appreciate this dessert even more. Our pineapples are good and cheap cos' I came across a stall in Chiangmai selling one whole cut local small pineapple for 100 bahts.
Chance upon this recipe in Y3K Magazine No. 69. Looks delicious before I noticed the additional information about its properties.
