Hi everyone, this is my first time trying to make sweet potato balls desert at home, and luckily it was a successful try so I want to share my recipe to all of you. This is a nice dessert made from all easy to find ingredients and it's also easy and fun to make as well.
The ingredients to make this dessert include: * Sweet potato * Tapioca starch * Coconut milk * Sugar/Condense milk * Grass jelly * Roasted peanut and coconut flakes
How to make the sweet potato dessert Step 1: Chop sweet potato into small pieces then steam them until soft
Step 2: When the sweet potato was cooked, put it into a bowl and let it cool down. Use a folk to mash the sweet potato to smooth, then slowly add in the tapioca starch and mix well until you have a smooth dough that doesn't stick to your hands. You can also add milk to the dough if it's too dry.
Step 3: Make small balls from the dough, coat the balls by tapioca starch to avoid sticky. At the same time, boil water in a pot.
Step 4: Slowly add the balls to the boiling water, wait until the balls float to water surface then take them out and put them in a bowl of cold water.
Step 5: Mix coconut milk with sugar or condense milk then heat the mixture on low heat to warm. Add the cooked sweet potato ball into the mixture then turn off the heat and let it cool.
How to serve the sweet potato soup
Cut the grass jelly into pieces and put into a bowl, add the sweet potato balls and the coconut milk mixture, sprinkle with roasted peanut and coconut flakes, then it's ready to serve.
This is a perfect summer dessert. The potato balls are soft and chewy, with the sweet taste from coconut milk and the refreshing taste from the grass jelly. Adding ice can make this dessert more enjoyable in a hot day.
