New Food Friday...Kolak Singkong

The other day I went and visited the family of a little girl in my kindergarten class(it's been such a great start to the year as I've been able to start building relationships with the kids and their families). As is custom in Indonesian culture, while I was visiting her family, her mom made me eat so much food.
She brought out a dish that she had made called "Kolak Singkong." It was a soup that was made from coconut milk, a little sugar and chunks of cooked cassava(kind of like a potato). She also added chunks of red jello to it, too. Not exactly the combination I would think to put together, but it was so good!! Just like anything that's covered in chocolate can taste good, I've come to learn that anything that has coconut milk in it tastes good! :)
