This is a dessert that is filling but very simple to make. Use fresh and firm taro for best results. Ingredients:
1 pound raw taro root, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes |
2 1/2 cups coconut milk |
3/4 cup white sugar |
1/4 cup palm sugar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup coconut cream |
Directions:
1. Bring the coconut milk to a boil in a saucepan; reduce heat to medium-low to maintain a simmer. Cook the taro root in the simmering coconut milk until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Add the white sugar, palm sugar, and salt to the mixture; stir until the sugars are entirely dissolved into the mixture. Stir the coconut cream through the mixture; continue cooking just until hot. Ladle into individual bowls to serve. |
