Instructions for making yam sweet soup:
Step 1: Purchase fresh yams, peel off the outer skin, wash, and cut into bite-sized pieces. Soak the yams in cold water with a pinch of salt for at least 3 hours to remove the sap. During soaking, occasionally change the water to keep it fresh. Rinse the yams thoroughly and drain.

Step 2: Place the yams in a pot, add enough water to cover them, and boil until the yams are tender. Remove and drain the yams, then transfer them to a pot to steep with sugar. Mix the yams well with sugar and let them soak for 30 minutes.

Step 3: Once the yams are fully cooked, remove them and cut into bite-sized pieces.

Step 4: In a pot, add sugar (to taste) and a few slices of ginger. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved.

Step 5: Bring a pot of water to a boil, then add the yams and cook for about 5 minutes. Remove and serve in a bowl.
Place a pot of boiling water on the stove, add cane sugar, finely chopped ginger, and coconut milk. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and add the yams to simmer until they absorb the sweetness. Gradually sprinkle in the arrowroot powder while gently stirring to dissolve evenly into the soup. Simmer until the arrowroot powder is cooked through, ensuring the soup is slightly thick, sweet enough, and the yams are tender yet firm.

Step
6:
Turn off the heat and ladle the soup into bowls. Optionally, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and garnish with a few strands of tender coconut flesh before serving hot.

Wishing you all the best in mastering this delightful and enticing sweet cassava dessert.
