Red-bean ice

ABC was on my list-to-try in Malaysia. And I just chanced upon it at Selera Putra food court on the bank of the Putra lake in Putrajaya. Ais kacang meaning “red-bean ice” or popularly known as air batu campur in Malay or ABC for short is a like an assortment of crushed ice with various syrups with red beans, sweet corn, jellies and can be topped with a scoop of ice-cream. It was a huge soup bowl if ice candy and cooled down our bodies. No wonder its so popular in Malaysia which has a tropical weather. I was amazed at the combination on beans in ice-cream, imagine rajma beans in your ice-cream? But, don’t be turned off, the combination was perfectly done; just the right amount of beans and the syrups with the ice golas makes this a must-try item.
