Tumpuk Sar - A Traditional Indonesian Cassava Cake
Tumpuk Sar is a delightful layered cake from Indonesia, made primarily of grated cassava and fragrant coconut milk. The dish blends natural sweetness with aromatic pandan or vanilla undertones and balanced saltiness, creating a moist, chewy texture similar to a pudding or steamed cake. Traditionally, this dessert is steamed layer by layer, giving it its trademark layered appearance and complex textures. Its origins stem from the use of cassava, a root crop cultivated widely across Indonesia, reflecting resourcefulness in Indonesian cuisine.
Tips & Notes
- Using fresh grated cassava is paramount for authentic texture and flavor.
- Coconut milk quality greatly influences richness; choose a thick consistency.
- Palm sugar provides a deep caramel flavor, but white sugar works fine.
