Vietnamese Fruit Medley (Chè Thái)
What is Chè Thái?
Chè Thái is a Vietnamese fruit medley dessert: a sweet, creamy mix of lychee, rambutan, jackfruit, palm seeds, coconut jelly and green jelly in coconut milk, served icy cold. Despite the name ("Thai chè"), it's a Vietnamese favorite, and it's one of the most popular chè at Vietnamese dessert shops.
We made this for a friend's birthday party, and it's a great dessert to share with friends and family. Everything comes from a can, so it's just open, mix, chill and serve.
