How to cook Cassava Cake
Filipinos typically eat Cassava Cake as a snack. In its basic form, cassava cake is made of grated cassava, coconut milk, and sugar mixed into a batter and baked until cooked. Like other cuisines, the cooked cake is typically topped with various toppings, ranging from a basic topping of shredded cheese to a fancy custard made with eggs, condensed milk, evaporated milk, or coconut milk and baked a second time until golden. Other typical toppings include sweetened Macapuno strips, young coconut meat, desiccated coconut, or nata de coco. In the Philippines, cassava cake - also known as yucca or tapioca - is a popular dessert. Tapioca is one of the root crops that Filipinos plant because the country of the Philippines has large farmland. It is commonly known by the name Kamoteng Kahoy, which translates to "camote tree" or "tapioca tree."
