Some one complained about my last post about this dessert from a food crop because it was blurr. I don't blame him because it was a left over from my bowl
I couldn't tell you what kind of cassava dessert this is because I forgot the name of the other ingredient, which was coconut milk. I didn't watch how it was done but I think the cassava and milk were cooked together or something.
Still, I wouldn't eat it if there were no other ingredients on it. The original plan was to make it like a rice ball but they changed their minds.
If you any one else who doesn't know this is a root crop like sweet potatoes.
Have a nice day


Cassava or Yuca is one of the nutrient-dense root vegetables of South American origin. It's sweet, and nutty textured root is a favorite kitchen item in African, Caribbean, and South-American cuisine.

It looks like our Ginatan which is cassava and banana plantain that is cooked in coconut milk and sugar.

Hello @Alexandoy sadly, this is just cassava and no other ingredients besides the coconut milk and sugar.

I like this. When I cooked cassava I added sago, the very small ones.
