Instructions

  1. If using frozen grated cassava, thaw and drain excess liquids by using a sieve.
  2. If using young coconut meat, either grate/shred or chop the meat finely.
  3. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
  4. Wash the banana leaves with water and pat dry. Heat each leaf by running it real quick on top of your stove with the heat/fire on. This will make the banana leaves more pliable.
  5. Scoop two spoonfuls of the mixture and place near the edge of a leaf then form into a log. Roll towards the other end to enclose the filling and then fold both sides towards the middle to fully seal the filling inside.
  6. Arrange the rolled Cassava Suman in the top layer of a steamer with the folds facing down to prevent them from opening while steaming.
  7. Steam for 30-35 minutes.
  8. Remove the cassava suman from the steamer and let it cool down. You may serve it just slightly warm or cold.
