Brush coconut oil around the bowl to help release the pudding once set.

In a bowl, combine 1/4 cup of cornstarch with 1/4 cup of coconut milk and stir until smooth.

Add the remaining 1 3/4 cups of coconut milk to the cornstarch mixture and stir gently.

Add 1/4 cup of white granulated sugar and a pinch of salt to the mixture and stir to combine.

Heat the mixture on low heat while stirring constantly until it thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

Once thickened to a ribbon consistency, remove from heat and pour into the prepared bowl.

Tap the bowl to remove any air bubbles and use a spatula to even off the top.

Allow the pudding to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for 3-4 hours.

After chilling, unmold the pudding by tapping the sides and flipping it onto a plate.

Garnish with sweetened desiccated coconut, slivered almonds, and mint leaves before serving.
