Pandan and Matcha mousse cake by Van Vandy

Green is the dominant color in this unique mousse cake by Van Vandy, pastry chef at the luxurious Amansara Hotel Siam Reap (Cambodia). A vibrant hue that the young pastry chef gets by combining matcha tea powder and pandan leaf juice, a tropical plant that grows abundantly in Southeast Asia and adds an interesting vanilla flavor.

With this dessert, whose recipe we share below, Vandy reveals the richness of Cambodian cuisine, influenced by other cuisines and which is about to blow up soon, as she herself explained to our correspondent Santiago Corral on a recent visit.
