KOLAK BUAH

This dessert is called “KOLAK BUAH” in Bahasa. I don’t think I have the name in English. The dessert is made from different kind of fruits, such as yams or sweet potato, plantain, jackfruit and palm seeds. Majority Indonesian people love this kind of dessert and it is also very popular in the month of Ramadhan.

I made this dessert about a week ago. When the weather outside was getting very cold and had no sign of spring yet, a bowl of hot Kolak Buah is really warm my heart.

Ingredients:
Plantains
Sweet potato or yams
Jack fruit
Palm seed
Coconut milk
Palm sugar
Pandanus leaf

Direction:
Boil water and coconut milk
Add sweet potato or yams until half soft then add plantains, jack fruit and palm seed.
Lastly add palm sugar and pandanus leaf.


Better serve this dessert while still hot or warm

This is a lovely dessert, just like what we called bubur cha cha in M'sia, with slightly less ingredients.
