Method

Steaming:

1. You can choose to use a traditional steaming pot or a pressure cooker to steam the yam and sweet potatoes until they turn soft but keep their original cube shape. Then, reduce on lower heat and leave it to simmer for a minute. Set aside and cover for the flavors to infuse.

Mixing:

1. While waiting for the yam and sweet potatoes to be ready, mix half the coconut with water, some salt, the sugar and the pandan leaves in a medium size sock pot and bring them to a boil.
2. Remove the sweet potatoes and the yam cubes from the steamer and add it into the mixture. Bring to boil stirring well for 2 minutes. Add the balance of coconut to keep the coconut aroma, stir once again, then stop the boiling.

Presentation:

1. Serve immediately in small bowls but if you like it cold, just throw in some ice cubes.
