Instructions

1. Boil

Boil batata in unsalted water until it's fork-tender (about 20 min). Remove from the water and cool to room temperature. Crush a bit with a potato masher or fork.

2. Blend

Mix sweet potatoes, coconut milk, milk, cinnamon, clove, and ⅓ cup of sugar and blend until it is very smooth.

3. Cook

Pour into a saucepan and add the raisins and salt. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly to avoid burning the bottom. Once it has thickened to yogurt-like consistency, taste sugar, and add more to taste if you find it necessary (sweetness was fine to my taste). Remove from the heat.

4. Chill

Chill: Pour into a metal bowl and stir until it has cooled to room temperature. Chill.

5. Serve

Pour into individual bowls, sprinkle with coconut flakes, and serve.

Notes

Can you make it with orange sweet potato? Yes, the flavor and consistency will be different, but if that's what you have, give it a try and see if you like it.
