Make pandan extract. Blend pandan leaves with 200 ml of water. Sieve through coffee filters or cheesecloth to extract about 125ml (1/2 cup) of extract.
Mix pandan extract with glutinous rice flour. Mould into a dough, it should be slightly sticky but should not crack. Add more water if needed.
Pinch 2 tsp of dough and roll into a ball. Throw it in boiling water and cook till dough floats up. Throw the cooked dough back into the remaining dough and knead well. This will help to gel the dough together.
Pinch 2 tsp of dough and place 1/2 tsp of gula Melaka in it. Roll into a ball. Immediately throw in boiling water to boil for 5-10mins or till the dough floats to the surface.
Take mochi out with a sieve and roll it on a plate of dessicated coconut. You can also add some salt to the coconut if you like :)
