Gosh....I missed Indonesian dessert so badly!! It's been long time I never go back to Indonesia, and it means, the last time I ate Indonesian dessert was 3 yrs ago......heezzz.... Since I arrived Seattle, I can't really find a good Indonesian Restaurant. Yeaaa...there is some of Indonesian Restaurant at downtown, but not all Indonesian dessert that I want sold by them, and it's pretty expensive, also a bit far from my home. So the only way I can enjoy it at my own kitchen, means I have to make it by myself which is I have to search, find or ask my sister in law for the recipe. As you know, when I was in Indonesia, I never make any Indonesian dessert such as onde-onde, ketan item, biji salak or kacang telor.
When I woke up this morning, my mind kept thinking of Indo's dessert, and after I looked around my kitchen drawer, my choice fell on biji salak *yea of course, the only ingredient I have for Indo's dessert is yam (ubi)*. The right choice cos my hubby loved it so much. It tasted sweet on the soup and chewy on the biji salak (but I reduced the sugar, cos both of us dislike it too sweet).
So, here it is Biji Salak from Belzy's Kitchen. Enjoy! :)

4 pieces yam
