🍮 Classic Pichi Pichi Recipe 🍮
📝 Ingredients:
- 500 g (2 cups) grated cassava (if using pre-grated cassava, avoid squeezing for a juicier texture)
- 1 cup sugar (adjust according to your preference)
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup grated coconut (for coating)
📋 Instructions:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine grated cassava, sugar, water, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
2. Make sure the steamer is already boiling before adding the cassava mixture.
3. Transfer the cassava mixture into large molds or heat-proof containers.
4. Cover the steamer with a clean cloth to prevent water droplets from falling onto the Pichi Pichi.
5. Steam for 20 to 30 minutes or until the Pichi Pichi becomes firm. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick—it should come out clean.
6. Once cooked, let the Pichi Pichi cool down. Then, transfer each piece onto a plate and roll it in grated coconut.
Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar according to your taste preference.
🥰 These delightful treats are perfect for cozy moments or as a delicious snack paired with your favorite hot beverage, be it coffee or cocoa. ☕
