The easy recipe consists of glutinous rice cooked in coconut cream, then steamed. The round-shaped rice cakes are sprinkled with fresh coconut meat slivers and served with fresh, ripe mangoes in season and cups of piping-hot cocoa, called Sikwate in Cebu.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/filipino-puto-maya-rice-cakes-instant-pot-stove-top/feed/ 2 11533 https://thequirinokitchen.com/make-nilupak-cassava-coconut-rice-cakes/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/make-nilupak-cassava-coconut-rice-cakes/#comments Sun, 19 Nov 2017 21:18:01 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=6830 Nilupak is a Filipino kakanin (rice cake) made with cassava, coconut, and sugar. My modern version uses frozen grated cassava which is found in Asian or Latin markets. Most of us who live in suburban America don’t have access to fresh cassava like we did in the Philippines. But it does not stop me from making a time-treasured Philippine delicacy which has a few basic ingredients and is meant to be shared with family and friends during the holidays or special gatherings. Once cooked, each serving of the nilupak has hearty, soft and sweet cassava and coconut shreds]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/make-nilupak-cassava-coconut-rice-cakes/feed/ 2 6830
