Lod-Chong Nam Ka-Ti is a Thai dessert that features pandan noodles swimming in a sweet and creamy coconut milk sauce. It is served over crushed ice, making it the perfect treat for hot summer days. Pandan leaves, which give the noodles their vibrant green color, are commonly used in Southeast Asian cuisine to add flavor and aroma to dishes. This dessert is popular in Thailand, and it's easy to see why - the combination of sweet, creamy, and chewy textures is unbeatable.

3.	Add the cooked noodles to the coconut milk mixture and stir well. Remove from heat.
4.	Serve over crushed ice and enjoy!
