Sawut Imut (Steamed Grated Cassava Cake)

This traditional cake, is commonly sold in the market together with other interesting food and palm sugar is normally added or part of the recipe, so the colour will be brown. When you buy, it will be wrapped in banana leaves. 

I modified the recipe as well as the appearance, so it looks prettier and just a mouth full or more of a finger food. It is convenient when if we want to use it as a snack without getting all the finger sticky.
