Bubur Chacha

Bubur chacha is a coconut-milk based dessert, with steamed yams and sweet potatoes. It can be served hot or cold with shaved ice. It's up to the individual's preference ... but I actually like it served boiling hot. Not sure why, but I find the dessert more satisfying that way ....

At home, Dad is the one who cooks desserts ...... The sweet potatoes and yams were cleaned, diced and steamed. The sago pearls were soaked till they softened and cooked together with thick coconut milk and sugar. A few pieces of screwpine leaves lent a refreshing aroma to the coconut broth.

When the broth is ready, the steamed diced sweet potatoes and yams were added ......
