Bubor Cha Cha

This is a simplified recipe for bubor cha cha. Usually, the sweet potato and yam are steamed and then added to the sugar syrup, follow by adding the coconut milk and a pinch of salt. To simplify the process, steaming is omitted, therefore just note that the sweet potato and yam should not be over boiled to avoid it being too mushy. For a lighter version of bubor cha cha, part of the coconut milk can be replaced with some unsweetened soy milk. Add some tapioca starch cubes, if desired.
