  • ½ cup boiling water
  • 1/3 cup raisins
  • 1 freshly grated coconut
  • The milk of the coconut plus enough cold water to make 1 cup
  • 1½ cups sugar
  • 5 whole cloves
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

    • How To Cook:
    1. Pour ½ cup of boiling water over the raisins and let them soak for at least 10 minutes. Meanwhile in a 2- to 3-quart enameled or stainless-steel saucepan, combine the coconut-milk mixture, sugar and cloves, and bring it to a boil over high heat, stirring only until the sugar dissolves.

    2. Reduce the heat to moderate and cook, uncovered and undisturbed, until the syrup reaches a temperature of 230° on a candy thermometer or a few drops added to ice water form a thread. Stir the grated coconut into the syrup, lower the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    3. Beat the egg yolks with a fork, whisk or rotary beater for a minute or two, until they thicken. Beat into them 2 or 3 tablespoons of the simmering coconut mixture, then slowly pour the eggs into the pan, stirring all the while.

    4. Still stirring, simmer the mixture for 5 minutes, but under no circumstances allow it to come to a boil. Remove the pan from the heat, pick out the cloves, and add the thoroughly drained raisins and lemon juice.

    5. Transfer the pudding to a bowl and let it come to room temperature. Then refrigerate until completely chilled. Serve either from the bowl or in individual dessert dishes.
