FRUITS AND VEGGIES MONDAY : Kuah Daun UBI TUMBUK MAKSA😂

HELLOW FOODIES AND STEEMIT FELLOWS😉

I am back in the best tag on monday for me 😉 it is #fruitsandveggiesmonday by @lenasveganliving and now host by @plantstoplanks 😍 never hate monday because of lovely people who shared their wonderful recipes, fruits and veggies too. If you want to know how to join and what's the condition is 😊 just check on this post.

Now.. with an eye for steemmonsters and another eye to check on ginabot😊😅 I will share My Hubby request. It was a traditional veggie dish from North Sumatera (My Father's homeland), while we have our own recipe of this in Aceh, and I have cooked another kind of this dish from Java which called "Buntil Daun Singkong", but "Ubi Tumbuk" was special.I was missing out the important veggie for this dish, but all managed😊

this is cassava leaves😊, Achenese called it Oun Ubi, while the Javanese called it Daun Singkong

In the traditional recipe from Medan, North Sumatera. You should boiled this leaves first before you mashed the leaves😊 but I have no wood mortar to do that, so I just use a shortcut😊 I use blender to mashed the leaves before I cook it.

it took me several times to complete the mission of mashing 300grams of cassava leaves😊

While boiling the mashed cassava leaves for 20 minutes, I prepared the seasoning. It just as simple as my other recipe that I've shared here. Red chillies, shallots, garlic, turmeric, ginger and candlenut.

I blender all of it with some water

Next step is preparing the must have herbs for Mashed Cassava Leaves Soup😊 Lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves and bayleaf (too bad that I don't have torch ginger flower which would made this soup super tasty😯)

you know that I missed out turkey berry and torch ginger flower for this dish and that's why I called the dish as "forced mashed cassava leaves soup😇.

Now we need to check on our boiled mashed cassava leaves, almost well-cooked, time to drain it. I didn't use the water because it taste a bit bitter, but I didn't squeeze the mashed leaves too😊.

Add 200-400 cc water to dissolve the cream and cook it for 15 more minutes abd keep stirring it carefully. Aahhh you need to put galangar too😊

p9rqexnyz8.jpgyou can add sliced tomato and minced turkey berries if you have it too😊 to make it more fresh abd tasty😉

Don't forget to add some salt and taste it before you turn off the heat and prepared this with hot rice and something like chilli sauces, anything salty or yummy like potato's cake😊

it's ready 😉 The FORCED MASHED CASSAVA LEAVES SOUP A la Cici

Some people might also add roasted coconut or even blend the coconut's pulp with the seasoning, add corriander powder or even fennel and cumin😊 but I don't like it too tasty. Hubby and FIL said this kind of veggie dish taste is fine for them 😊 not too hot and spicy. I know, They're Javanese, so anykind of Sumatera dishes will do Okay with them😉.

Have a Lovely Monday and Thanks For Stopping by😉

What a beautiful soup @cicisaja, love the coconut cream. I've never seen cassava leaves but the spices and veggies you cooked sound amazing :)

Thank you @birdinparadise 😉 oohh.. it's been sometimes I didn't visit your blog😊 cassava or yuca leaves wouldn't be easy to find at your place, I suppose😊

Dear @cicisaja,

YOu're seriously making me fat with all your delicious recipes!

This one won't make you fat my dear @nurseanne84 😉 except you ate with 2 plates of rice 😂😂😂

That is absolutely true. Whenever I stop by your post, you are sharing recipes and ingredients which are actually available here but, we rarely use in our cooking.

Thank you for the info and, I might really be doing this:

Hehehe.. that's because I want the world to know about how rich our countries are with its vegetation and unique fruits and veggies. Remember ... the common one usually easy to forget but unforgettable

Cassava leaves—never heard of’em. Candlenut—never heard of’em.

Doesn’t matter—I can almost taste it from here! Good morning @cicisaja—steemits sweetest chef. 😉

You are in Costarica now @dandays 😉 you shall find the cassava leaves easily. Yuca, manihot esculenta, brazillian arrow root, but it's not yucca😊.. you can find the shrub easily there I supposed😉

Candlenut aka candleberry, indian walnut, kekuna, kukui nut, varnish tree...Aleuritas molucannus .. found in Timor and Morotai, eastern Indonesia. You can skip it if you didn't find any 😉 I usually use this as an exchange of coconut cream, but..sometimes I add this just to get the more creamy taste😊

Wow, wow, wow! I never knew cassava leaves can be eaten,i thought it's its only the crop that you dig out from the soil. Thank you @cicisaja i am learning a lot from you. I would love to taste one, this is a comfort food! Looks so delicious.

I am loving indonesia because of you cici, from all these heavenly dishes you're sharing. Thank you again.

Oohh NO @sherylneil 😨😨😨 you made me shocked by telling me that you didn't kniw that we can consume the shrub😯 are you sure you are from southeast Asia 😂😂😂 .. I'm kidding 😉

Do you know "rendang"? We even have casava leaves rendang now in Indonesia😊 this leaves is a long old friend with papaya leaves 😊 in many salad or veggie dishes in Indonesia. We even have the curly one here too😊

Thank you for your nice comment, let me tell you the truth 😊 I'm calling you to go home and explore our rich cullinary culture😍

Hahaha. Quiet true, as i am living half of my life in abroad now. Gosh, i need a recall, haha.
Really, we eat a lot of cassava and to make sweets but never heard that leaves are edible too. I need to ask my folks.
Hey, glad to see your back. I hope your doing well. Take care cici. X

You have gone and done it again! I don't think I will ever even scratch the surface of all the wonderful regional dishes that are out there, but I thank you for expanding my horizons bit by bit! All that vibrant greenery and savory flavors sound delicious! Especially with that hit of coconut cream to balance it all out. Ok, now I'm really going to have to go to the international market! Though I probably need to make a list first so I can compare what they have to some of the things you have shown me. :)

hahahaha.. you always make me blushed @plantstoplanks! you know that.. people in my country would burst in laughs when they read my cooking style if They have it in Bahasa Indonesia, Mom will scold me for doing so much experimental things while cooking. But I don't have ingredients like you and other people from the other side of the world in my kitchen, so.. I just show you what everybody in my hometown would do if they have something like this in their kitchen or garden.there's so many things we could do with this shrub.

Thanks again for your lovely comment Katie, so encouraging and this is what made me always want to share what I have here with you.

Oh my @cicisaja, this must have been absolutely delicious and packed with flavour, lovely entry!

Thank you @lizelle 😊 I don't think this is so delicious for you 😊 too creamy
