Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 cans coconut milk
  • 2 cups water
  • ½ cup glutinous rice
  • 1 cup gabi peeled, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 cups purple yam peeled, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 cups sweet potato aka kamote, peeled, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 saba banana peeled, cubed
  • 1 cup sago pearls cooked
  • 1 cup jackfruit strips
  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • ½ cup muscovado sugar or brown sugar

Instructions

  1. In a pot over medium heat, combine coconut milk and water. Bring to a simmer.
  2. Add glutinous rice and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 to 15 minutes. 
  3. Add gabi, purple yams and kamote. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15 to 20 minutes or until tender.
  4. Add bananas, sago, jackfruit, coconut cream, and sugar. Stir to combine.
  5. Continue to cook for about 8 to 10 minutes or until rice, tubers, and fruits are completely cooked and liquid begins to thicken.
  6. Serve hot or cold.

Notes

  • Cut ingredients in uniform sizes for even cooking.
  • Ready-to-eat sago in the US comes bottled in heavy syrup. Make sure to drain them well lest the stew becomes overly sweet.
  • Cook the coconut sauce in a gentle simmer and do not bring to a boil to keep from curdling or separating.
