250 g Pumpkin meat (no rind), steamed
½ Cup Rice flour
1 Cup Tapioca
1 ½ Cup White sugar
½ Tsp Salt
½ Cup Coconut cream
1 Cup Fresh coconut meat, shredded (divided into ½ for dressing and cake)
  1. Put the cake container in a steamer and start it steaming
  2. In a bowl add the pumpkin meat, rice flour, tapioca, sugar, salt, and coconut cream.
  3. With your hands (gloved preferably) massage the mixture together. Allow some of the pumpkin texture to remain
  4. Add and ½ cup coconut meat and mix with a spoon
  5. Mix a little salt with the remaining meat so make it slightly salty (take the sweetness out of the coconut)
  6. When well combined put some of the mix in the container in the steamer. We used little side dishes, the cake took 10 minutes to cook
  7. In our case: after 3 minutes place some of the salted coconut meat to each of the cakes and recover and cook a further 7 minutes. At the end of cooking pierce with a cake tester and ensure no cake has stuck to the tester
  8. Remove from the steamer and allow to cool a little. Remove from containers and serve
