Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a saucepan, bring coconut milk to a gentle boil. Reduce heat to medium-low to maintain a simmer. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add taro root to the simmering coconut milk. Cook until the taro is fork-tender. (15-20 minutes)

03

Step

Stir in white sugar, palm sugar, and salt, ensuring the sugars are fully dissolved into the mixture. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Gently fold in the coconut cream. Continue cooking until the mixture is heated through, but do not boil. (2-3 minutes)

For the best results, use fresh, firm taro root. This ensures a delightful texture in the final dish.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. Taste as you go and sweeten accordingly.
Garnish with toasted coconut flakes or a sprinkle of sesame seeds for an added touch of elegance.
