Thai Pumpkin and Coconut Pudding

Methods

• Put pumpkin, rice flour, sugar, coconut milk, cornmeal, desiccated coconut and salt in a mixer and grind to a smooth paste.
• Pour the paste into a mould.
• Heat sufficient water in a steamer. Place a steel bowl inverted in the steamer, place the pudding bowl over it and cover with a lid and steam for 20 minutes.
• To check if the pudding is set, allow it to cool and then insert a toothpick or knife gently. If it comes out clean, it is set. Then run the knife along the edges to loosen, and upturn the mould on a serving platter to demould the pudding.
• Cut into slices and serve.
