Bingka Ubi

Be the first to review!
There is nothing more comforting than a good cup of tea with a side of Bingka Ubi. This Malaysian cassava cake is as much a snack as it is a dessert. You will find it to be soft and dense with a hint of custard, the kind of texture that comes from grating the cassava and combining it with coconut milk, sugar and a touch of salt. The coconut flavor is lovely. And because you steam it rather than put it in the oven, it makes for an excellent no-oven recipe.
