Dual layer tapioca kueh (steam)

We went to a friend's farm and were gifted with some white tapioca.  During the trip, I also managed to buy Gula Asli.  

Good opportunity to turn it into a Dual Layer Tapioca Kueh (steam).  I modified it as I have tasted one that has bits of tapioca before and actually love it.

Learning: I used the thermomix to grate it so it became effortless.  I even freeze the remaining grated tapioca for other recipes.

Overall, really love the texture.

What you need:

Gula melaka layer: 

350g grated tapioca 

110g Gula asli or gula melaka

40ml water 

125ml thick coconut milk 

¼ tsp salt 

50g tapioca, finely cubed

2 tbsp tapioca starch 

Pandan layer

350g grated tapioca 

100g caster sugar 

180ml thick coconut milk 

¼ tsp salt

50g tapioca, finely cubed

20ml concentrated pandan juice

Method:

Deskinned the tapioca as seen in the source video.  I was told that this is the right method so that the tapioca will not taste bitter.

Cut the tapioca into small chunks and grate it in the TM bowl. 30 sec/Speed 10.  Scrape down and continue with another 30 sec (you can grate finer if you like a smooth texture). Remove and drain.

Chop the gula into small pieces and place in a pot, combine the gula with water and heat until the gula dissolved.  Leave to cool.

Divide the grated tapioca into 2.

Combine the coconut milk, gula mixture, salt and tapioca bits and mix well.  

Add in the tapioca bits and mix well.

Pour into the 7” square tin.  Flatten out and steam on high heat for 15 – 20 mins.

For the remaining grated tapioca.

Combine sugar, coconut milk, salt, pandan juice, tapioca bits and mix well.

Pour into the gula layer and spread evenly.

Continue to steam on high heat for 20 – 25 mins.

Remove and let it cool completely before cutting with a plastic knife.

Enjoy!
