Banh' chuoi' hap' - Steamed Banana Cake

 Just a few bucks for bananas and there we have a very quick and healthy dessert that everyone in the family  loves .


I can't just believe how much she loves being with me in the kitchen and so far , she's never turned me down 
Here's how she tries to show off her work :)


" how much sugar for these 7 bananas mommy?"
"..about 2 tablespoons , honey "

" So what about flour mommy ? how much do we need ? "
" we need 1 1/2 cups tapioca flour baby "

Then she starts counting , it takes her 30 spoons to finish the flour . There we have a fun time learning numbers and cooking at the same time . I couldn't think of a better way :-)



we have this mixture done within 15 minutes then transfer it to the steamer ...

 steam for 50 minutes and its all done , but for my taste , i put it in the oven and broil for another 5 minutes to get the smell of baked bananas ...wow ...the whole house smells  so good ;-)

For coconut milk , i like to put a few of pandan leaves in there , mix 1 can coconut + 1/2 cup water + a few spoons sugars and a bit salt , thicken with a little bit of the mixture of tapioca +water 

Wait until the cake reaches room temperature to cut . Serve with coconut milk and roasted peanuts .

  2. Adele ate most of it without coconut milk . I think yours would ,too
    Just make sure you wait a few hours for the cake to cool off completely before cut ..Happy cooking :)
