Childhood memories (Indonesian rice pudding)

Yaw...have you ever try this one ? A traditional Indonesian dessert, made from rice flour and coconut milk with palm sugar syrup. Trust me, it's a must try !

When I was a kid, my mum used to make this for her kids. Cheap, easy, simple and delish dessert, and we all still love it until now. So, this dish really remind me of my childhood. Not to mention that I love simple cooking. Recipes that don't have an excessive number of steps. :D

But if  I don't have time to make this, I can find the seller easily right in front of my house, every morning. Ohhh...lucky me, living in this beautiful country with many delicious foods (ssshhh...don't mention about the corruption in our government, shameful and my blog is also forbidden for politics !). Okay everyone, don't hesitate to make this pudding, the one you'll never regret !
