I had just finished writing Cassava with Sweet Coconut Toppings and about to publish this post today, when I received an email from H...  I watched the link ~ it gave me goosebumps... a lump in my throat... and near tears...

If I can get at least one other person to click the video... Variety Club Youth Choir effort to raise funds towards a good cause will not go unnoticed... Bravo... 

Note : I wish to spread the good work for the good cause... if there is any legality matters involved... I am unaware of...  please advice.. thanks.

And my thoughts and Prayers goes to everyone in Christchurch who has been affected by the earthquake...

    I love cassava but haven't eaten it for a while cos hubby doesn't like it. I love the coconut topping on top of your cassava cake. Sweet!

    This looks so neat, beautiful and delicious. I usually juts grate the cassava and steam with sugar and coconut milk or just plain boil and eat with sugar. But I love how you do yours. Thanks very much for sharing.

    I had cassava or yuca as we called it when I lived in Costa Rica 10 years ago. Now living in Perth, Australia and have never been able to find it here. Anyone know where I can get it? If so please email tashbowden@optusnet.com.au so I can try this lovely recipe!
