Steam Cassava Cake
INGREDIENTS
● 1 kilo Cassava
● 1 can condensed milk (390g)
● 1 cup evaporated milk
● 2 large eggs
● Pinch of salt
● 1 tsp vanilla extract
● 4 tablespoon margarine or butter, melted
● ¼ cup sugar (for the caramel)
DIRECTIONS
● Caramelizing sugar. Add the sugar in the round molder 8 inc. Cook in low heat until it starts to dissolve and caramelizes.
● Use tong to swirl the sugar around to cook evenly and avoid burning.
● Cook until the sugar turns amber color. Set aside and let it cool completely.
● Grate the fresh cassava. Use fine grater for smoother texture. After grating, squeeze some of the excess juice of the cassava (DO NOT squeeze too hard, just enough to remove excess juice).
● In a mixing bowl, combine the grated cassava, eggs, pinch of salt, vanilla extract, evaporated milk, condensed milk, and melted margarine. Mix until well-combined.
● Pour the cassava mixture in molder with caramelized sugar. Put around ¾ content to prevent overflowing as you steam. Cover with aluminum foil to avoid water droplets.
● Arrange the steaming molder in the steamer.
● Make sure the water in the steamer is already boiling. Steam for 45 to 1 hour using medium heat or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
● Once cooked, remove from steamer. Let it cool a little before unmolding.
● Best served with grated cheese on the top. Enjoy!
