Kolak (Sweeten coconut milk and pandan soup)

I want to share some of good memory of my childhood dessert that my mom always make it every weekend.
Now that so many franchise fast food and dessert, those good memory fade away and I find it very rear that this year generation is know this dessert, its very simple and cheap, that's must be why my Mom always make this every weekend, caused they can afford it  back in the day.
We will need:








200 Gram cassava
200 Gram sweet potato (Japanese yam)
200 Gram yellow pumpkin
200 Gram taro
50   Gram of candy palm (palm sugar)/ gula jawa

Boil all the ingredients above, approx 5 to 7 minutes, then set a side 
250-300 Ml  of water
1   Cup of sugar
1   Pinch of salt
1  Can store bought coconut milk
3  Pandan leaf  (you can find at any Asian store,frozen veggies isle)

Place a big pot over medium heat, add the water, sugar, candy palm, pandan leaf, salt.
Cook until it boil then add the fruits or veggies.
Boil for another 5 minutes then add the coconut milk and wait until it boil one more time, then remove from the heat.
Serve hot/ warm it very good and comforting  for winter day its serving for 6 to  person....happy try!!!!!
