Steps

1

Making this dessert requires no exact measurement. Add less or more of your preferred root vegetables.
Dice or cube root vegetables into bite size (cut all into similar, small thumb size cubes).
Note: We bought frozen pre-fried taro so it's added later (see step 2).
2

Place everything in a big pot, add enough water to just cover the cubed/diced veggies and bring to a boil and it should be almost tender at this stage. Once boiling, add a pinch of salt (abt 1/2 tsp), store-bought pre-cooked taro and coconut cream or coconut milk. Stir gently and bring to a boil again over medium high heat. It's now cooked and tender.
3

Add coconut sugar syrup (or grated palm sugar) and rice flour slurry. Stir gently until it thickens. Taste and adjust sweetness to your liking. Remove from the heat. Serve hot, warm or cold.

Notes:
1. Coconut sugar or palm sugar is used to give this dessert a distinct sweet taste.
2. Use rice flour to thicken. Rice flour and coconut cream or coconut milk tastes creamy when cooked together.
3. To serve cold, spoon into small cups or small serving bowls, refrigerate and serve as it is or top it up with some whipped cream.
