In Federated states of Micronesia there is not a culture of desserts and sweets, they use grated coconut or coconut milk together with a tuber like yuca, batata or breadfruit adding some cane sugar.
The recipe I present today is a pudding made of a mixture of coconut,yuca and papaya.
Ingredients (baking sheet 17x25 cm):
- 300 grams grated coconut.
- 600 grams of boiled yucca.
- 300 grams papaya meat.
- 180 grams brown or cane sugar.
- 300 grams grated coconut.
- 600 grams of boiled yucca.
- 300 grams papaya meat.
- 180 grams brown or cane sugar.
- 2 eggs.
Method:
1- Peel and cut in pieces the yucca. Put in a casserole with some water, put on a high heat until it reaches boiling point, then cook at medium heat for 10 minutes.
The central root of the yucca can be removed before or after being cooked, after being cooked it is easier to remove.
Flatten to make the surface even.
6- Preheat oven at 200ºC, cook for 30 minutes at the same temperature ,heat over and below.
It is very easy to prepare, it tastes a lot to coconut with little touches of papaya and yucca.
It is a healthy dessert.
