Tips:
- Choose the right cassava: Look for firm, smooth cassava roots with no blemishes or bruises. Avoid roots that are soft or have cracks or holes.
- Peel and cut the cassava properly: To peel cassava, use a sharp knife to remove the tough outer skin. Be careful not to cut into the flesh of the cassava. Cut the cassava into 1-inch pieces.
- Soak the cassava: Soaking the cassava in water for at least 30 minutes helps to remove the toxic cyanide compounds. Rinse the cassava thoroughly after soaking.
- Cook the cassava until tender: Cassava can be cooked in a variety of ways, including boiling, steaming, and frying. Boil or steam the cassava until it is tender, about 15-20 minutes. If you are frying the cassava, fry it until it is golden brown and crispy.
- Make the pecan and coconut jelly toppings: To make the pecan jelly topping, combine pecans, sugar, water, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. To make the coconut jelly topping, combine coconut milk, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Assemble the cassava with pecan and coconut jelly toppings: To assemble the cassava with pecan and coconut jelly toppings, place the cooked cassava in a serving dish. Top with the pecan jelly topping and the coconut jelly topping. Serve warm or cold.
