Hi Lovelies!
After almost 2 weeks of being warm, Winter is slowly coming back again, boo-hoo. Mother nature always loves teasing us, northern areas. Here is a week or two Spring-like weather, aaaaannndd Winter is back 😅
My husband sold his 3 year-old car, yesterday. He got it brand new, close to 9K mileage only, and he sold it super cheap. Well he was hoping for more, but the dealership didn't wanna give more, as it's a manual car, not many people drive manual cars, especially not the young ones. Kinda sad. He hardly drove the car as he works from home, and whenever we went out for those 3 years, I'd rather us driving mine instead, as mine is automatic with AC 😁. So yeah, hardly driven, only in town, hence low mileage and very pristine still, so yeah, kinda sad that he couldn't get more for what it should have worth for. We bought a matching car, mini cars. So yeah, sad 🥴
Anyhoo! This following dessert porridge is one of my favorites 😍
232 g peeled yam/sweet potato
100 g tapioca starch
A generous pinch of salt
1 L water
Pandan leaf, knotted
200 g dark brown sugar
2 heaping tbsp sugar
1 heaping tbsp tapioca starch, diluted in a little water (2-4 tbsp)
1 can of coconut milk
Salt to taste (generous big pinch to 1 tsp)
Knotted Pandan leaf
Steam yam/sweet potato til softened, then mash it while still warm
Add in starch and salt, knead until mixture becomes a nice dough
Pinch a dough, and shape it into ovals or rounds
Pour water into a pot, add in knotted pandan, bring to boil
Drop in dough, cook until they are floating
Once all ovals are floating, add in sugars, stir well, bring back to fully boil again, then thicken it with tapioca starch solution, stir well
Take off from heat
In a clean pot, pour in coconut milk, season with salt and add in knotted pandan. Bring to fully simmering, while stirring. Take off from heat
Serve glutinous porridge topped with a generous spoon of coconut milk
Enjoy!
