This coconut blanc-manger, very easy to prepare, is made from evaporated milk, coconut milk, gelatin, cinnamon, vanilla and lime. It is eaten like a flan (if you add a lot of gelatin) or in a creamy version, served on its own or with a slice of pineapple cake, for instance.

Editor's note
A non-traditional but delicious twist: toast the coconut in a dry skillet or with a little butter or palm oil. 

1. Soak the gelatin leaves in a bowl of cold water for 10 minutes.
2. In a saucepan, bring the coconut milk, evaporated milk and sugar to a boil.
3. Add the squeezed gelatin, lime zest, grated cinnamon and split scraped vanilla bean. Mix well.
4. Pour the mixture into small molds or ramekins. Let cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 5 hours to set.
5. Unmold.
