This Vietnamese dessert is sweet, warming and a bit gooey ! Its very nice and simple, flavorful too. Got this recipe when I went on a cooking course in Hanoi and this was the dessert of the four dishes I made. Ingredients:
500 g sweet potatoes, washed, peeled and diced |
1 cup sugar |
4 -5 slices fresh gingerroot |
4 cups water |
arrow starch |
Directions:
1. Bring the water to the boil, and put in the sweet potato.
2. When the water returns to the boil, add the ginger, and continue cooking until the potato is tender and cooked through.
3. Add sugar and a little arrow starch, and allow it to dissolve completely. Then remove from the heat. Serve hot.
4. P.S. If you're going to Hanoi, I really recommend this course ! www.hanoi- /tip.html.
