Instructions

  1. With a damp cloth, gently wipe surfaces of banana leaves to remove any dirt or grit. Over high flames, quickly pass leaves for about 3 to 5 seconds to wilt.
  2. In a bowl, combine cassava, sugar, and coconut milk. 
  3. Spoon about 2 heaping tablespoons of mixture onto a banana leaf and shape into a log. Fold banana leaf over mixture to enclose and roll tightly into a log. Fold both ends and tie with kitchen twine.
  4. Arrange prepared suman in a steamer and steam for about 35 to 45 minutes or until firm. Remove from steamer and allow to slightly cool.

Notes

  • Quickly pass the banana leaves over high flames to help soften and make them easier to fold.
  • If you like a bit of texture, add grated coconut to the cassava mixture.
