Prepare, grind, and squeeze cassava
Use 1 kg of fresh cassava, peel it, and soak it in a diluted saltwater solution for about 6 – 12 hours.
After that, rinse thoroughly, cut into small pieces, and put it in a blender, blending it with 400ml of water until smooth.
Once blended, place the mixture into a bag or a muslin cloth to squeeze out the water, retaining only the cassava residue. For the water, let it sit for 30 minutes for the cassava starch to settle, then pour off the water.
-
Mix the cake batter
Add all the prepared ingredients including: 400ml of coconut milk, 150ml of water, 110gr of tapioca flour, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 30gr of cream powder, 50gr of soaked mung beans, 80gr of condensed milk, 40gr of sugar, 30gr of cooking oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla powder into the squeezed cassava.
Next, mix all the ingredients together and let the mixture rest for 5 – 10 minutes for the cassava to expand.
The water squeezed from the cassava after settling should be poured off, leaving the starch settled at the bottom. Add this starch to the cassava mixture above and mix well.
-
Bake the cake
Use a mold greased with oil or lined with parchment paper in the air fryer. Pour the mixed cassava mixture into the air fryer.
You will bake the cake twice. The first time, place the cake in and bake at 150 degrees Celsius for 45 – 60 minutes, depending on the thickness of the cake.
Next, take the cake out to check its doneness. If you find that the cake is done, place it back in the oven and bake a second time at 175 – 180 degrees Celsius for 8 minutes to brown the top of the cake.
Take the cake out and brush a layer of vegetable butter on the top of the cake while it is still hot to make it glossy, beautiful, and more fragrant.

How to choose and prepare cassava (manioc)
- When choosing cassava, you should prioritize fresh, plump, straight roots with a thin skin, as they will have less fiber, be softer and sweeter.
- Use your fingernail to lightly scrape the thin outer skin; if the inner skin is light pink, choose it, if it is white, you should skip it, because the pink skin has fewer toxins than the white skin.
- In addition, do not let cassava sit too long as it will become hard, dry, and no longer tasty. Cassava contains toxins, so it’s best to prepare it at least one day before making your dish!
Where to buy coconut milk?
