Coconut tuna vegetable dip
200g | Coconut meat, shredded |
200g | Palm sugar |
1 Cup | Water |
1 Cup | Sticky rice flour |
1/2 Cup | Water (for dough) |
2 Cup | Coconut meat, shredded(for coating) |
1/2 Tsp | Salt |
- In a bowl combine the 2 cups of coconut meat and salt and put to one side
- In a heavy bottom pot on high heat simmer 200g coconut meat, palm sugar and 1 cup water until the water is absorbed by the coconut
- Once absorbed allow to cool slightly and then create small balls with the meat. Don’t allow to completely cool as they won’t stick together as a ball when completely cooled. Put balls to one side
- Combine in a bowl flour and 1/2 cup of water. Knead until the dough doesn’t stick to your fingers anymore. If the dough it too sticky or doesn’t stick together enough add more water/flour
- Create dough balls approximately the same size as the ball of coconut you want to cover
- Flatten the ball and place the coconut ball in the middle. Pull the sides over the coconut ball and stretch the dough to surround the coconut
- Place ball in aggressively boiling water. When the ball floats it is cooked
- Take the ball out and roll in the salted coconut meat. Serve and enjoy
