Thai Tapioca Dessert

I love Thai food, and that doesn't exclude the desserts
This dessert is one of the favorite choice among many of them




Very easy to make, such a delight to end a meal with dessert like this
It  can be quite filling, so it's good to reduce a little of your dinner portion and save some space for this dessert :)
I'm using my pressure cooker to do the job, to make sure the tapioca turned soft (it's difficult to enjoy this dessert when the tapioca is dry and hard)

What you need:

1kg of tapioca, cleaned and cut as desired
enough water for the tapioca to submerge
3 pandan leaves, torn
3 tbsp sugar, salt

For the sauce:
200ml Kara coconut milk
100ml water
enough sugar as desired
1 pandan leaf, torn
tapioca starch mixed with water as thickener
  1. Put tapioca, water, sugar and salt in pressure cooker and let it cooked (meat/bean function)
  2. Once cooked, the water will be absorbed by the tapioca
The sauce:
  1. Put coconut milk, water and sugar in a pot and bring to boil over low heat, keep stirring
  2. When boiled, add in thickener and stir well'
  3. Off heat
Pour sauce over tapioca and serve
Yum!
