Ginataan Sweet Potatoes In Coconut Milk

Features:
    Cuisine:

      Every Filipino I know loves Ginataan...a hot dessert of sweet potato and yam in sweetened coconut milk. We also add sliced Filipino Saba banana and little Mochiko balls (bilo bilo). Saba is a cooking banana similar to Plaintain, and can be found at Asian markets. Leave out the Saba if you can't locate it; do not use regular banana as it gets too mushy when cooked. Ginataan is Filipino comfort food at its finest!

      Steps

      1
      Done

      Wash and Peel Sweet Potatoes and Cut Into 1-1/2 Inch Pieces. Keep Cut Potatoes Under Water in a Prep Bowl While You Are Preparing So They Don't Discolor.

      2
      Done

      Drain Potatoes and Transfer to a Large Saucepan. Add the Sliced Saba. Pour in 2 Cups Water and Bring to Boil Over Medium-High Heat. Cook Until the Potatoes Are Fork-Tender.

      3
      Done

      While Potatoes and Saba Are Cooking, Make the Bilo Bilo: in a Small Bowl, Mix Together the Mochiko Flour and 2 Tablespoons of Water. Add More Water as Needed to Make a Dough That Is not Too Sticky, not Too Dry. Roll Into Marble-Size Balls and Set Aside.

      4
      Done

      When Potatoes Are Done, Lower the Heat to Medium and Gently Drop the Balls in the Simmering Water. They Are Fully Cooked When They Float to the Top.

      5
      Done

      When the Last Ball Floats, Gently Stir in the Coconut Milk and Sugar to the Mixture. Stir Carefully So You Don't Break Up the Potatoes. Simmer For 5 Minutes, Then Ladle Into Bowls and Serve Warm.

      6
      Done

      Store Leftovers in Fridge; Reheat Before Serving.
