Kolak // Sweet potatoes, Pumpkin in coconut milk

I would say this is signature dessert on Ramadan, people in Indonesia will make it, or find it so easy to buy, breaking the fast without kolak feels like something missing :).

It's not that complicated to make kolak, you can even add banana on it ( i couldn't get one this time), so u used pumpkin instead. Serve it cold would be better, there are no standard recipe for this dessert, put as many filling or coconut sugar as you want. Here is my recipe version:

Kolak // Sweet potatoes, Pumpkin in coconut milk
