๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿณ THE METHOD

  1. ๐Ÿ”ฅ Preheat your oven to 175ยฐC (350ยฐF). Grease your Baking tin with a little butter.

  2. ๐Ÿฅฃ In your Large mixing bowl, whisk together the Coconut Milk, Sugar, Melted Butter, Spices, Salt, Vanilla, and Rose Water.

  3. ๐Ÿฅ„ Take out 1 cup of this liquid and set it aside in a small bowl for the top layer.

  4. ๐ŸŒช๏ธ Put the chopped Sweet Potato, Yellow Yam, and Pumpkin into the Blender.

  5. ๐Ÿฅฅ Pour the rest of the Coconut Milk mix into the blender with the vegetables.

  6. ๐ŸŒ€ Blend on High for 2 Minutes until the mix looks like a very smooth, orange cream.

  7. ๐Ÿฅฃ Pour the blended mix back into the Large mixing bowl.

  8. ๐Ÿง Use your Sifter to slowly shake the Flour into the bowl. Whisk gently until there are no white lumps.

  9. ๐Ÿฅ˜ Pour the batter into the Baking tin.

  10. โฒ๏ธ Use your Oven mitt to put the tin in the oven and bake for 45 Minutes.

  11. ๐Ÿงค Carefully pull the rack out. Pour the 1 cup of Spiced Coconut Milk you saved earlier over the top of the pudding.

  12. ๐Ÿ”ฅ Bake for another 20 to 25 Minutes until the top layer is soft and set.

  13. ๐Ÿ›‘ Turn the oven dial to the Off position. Let the pudding cool completely before slicing.


๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ SAFETY FIRST

  • ๐ŸŒช๏ธ Blender Capacity: Do not fill the Blender more than 3/4 full. If the vegetables are too heavy, blend them in two smaller batches.

  • ๐Ÿงค The "Double Bake": When you add the top layer, the tin is extremely hot. Always use Oven mitts and move slowly to avoid splashing the hot liquid.

  • ๐Ÿ  Chopping Roots: Raw yams and sweet potatoes are very hard and can roll. Cut a thin slice off the side first to create a flat base on your Cutting board so the vegetable stays still while you chop.
