Pandan leaves. What to do with them?
Extract the juice and bake bread.
I also added about 1 TBSP gula melaka (coconut sugar). After baking, I realised that if I had wanted sweet bread, it would have to be a lot more of sugar. But the silver lining is that I can eat this bread either way - with sweet jam or to accompany savoury dishes, even curry.
